Makes three of us. When I bought a new laptop recently, I deliberately asked for an "upgrade" to XP  Grin

You're not alone IRF!

Vista’s death march picked up some pace yesterday, after a metrics researcher revealed that nearly 35 per cent of PCs built to run the Windows operating system have been downgraded to XP.

I agree that your "upgrade" is more accurate.

"Those with email addresses starting with A - "aardvarks" - got 35 per cent spam, but "zebras" received a mere 20 per cent."

My solution to spam email - use a really obscure name for your address!

The screen of this board became very big in my computer since yesterday. I find it very inconvenient. I can not see the whole message at once because it is too big.
Can any one understand what I mean?
Can anything be done about it?

Is it the letters that are too big, t-p? You might just have to shrink your text. Control/- on a PC, command/- on a Mac.

Yes, letters are too big. I can only see half a message. After that I have to move the message with a cursor.
I tried to push control and / buttons, but it did not help so far.

May be I pushed some wrong buttons without knowing.

Sorry, t-p, that wasn't clear. "Control" and "minus". No slash.
