Last night while I was on the BBC website I found a new section called iPlayer and went to have a look. Basically it plays back the last seven days most popular/interesting BBC programmes and it is FREE, all you need is a media player that can be downloaded from the website. Take a look here www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/ - as of 27th Dec you have 3 days left that you can watch the full version of the last Top Gear programme rather than the bits that appear on You-Tube. Very useful if you have missed a programme that you really wanted to see, or if you are like me and don't have a telly in the house but still want to watch something! I even watched the special edition of "To the Manor Born" after I watched TG - how sad! 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Its the same underlying technology as Sky and 4 use for internet programmes. Therefore it has a peer-to-peer engine (similar to BitTorrent) built in. This means that your PC becomes a "Server" for other users of the service and if you are not careful it can bring your PC to a halt.

Try running the FireFox Browser with a plugin called FoxyProxy.... this might help changing your top level domain to another country at least whilst you watch the BBC....
