      It’s not the only one on sale. Android Authority have listed a few more:

      http://www.androidauthority.com/interesting-apps-sale-google-play-768615/

      Some of the prices have already changed, but there are some good deals  :good:

        Here’s a link to Kaspersky’s own comparison page. Still doesn’t tell you a great deal but I have just the AV and get warned about bad links as well as all the usual AV things. I’m not worried about the extra features of the others.

        Thanks Dave 🙂

        EDIT: Pressed submit too soon  :wacko:

        Is it worth using Kaspersky on an Android device? I’m sure that someone here said they’re sandboxed, so an AV can’t do much, but I can’t remember.

          Kaspersky Internet Security is cheaper again, but I can’t see what the difference between the packages is https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01LEI5GWI/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&smid=AZSR40NZ6UYCN&th=1

          That has changed since my last link, 3 devices 1yr is now £14.98. 5 devices 1 yr. is £19.75 Digital Download is more expensive. “Frustration Free Packaging” is also more expensive. I give up!

          Sorry Bob, I meant the difference between Total Security on your link, and Internet Security on mine. As far as I can tell, they both cover the same things, and both include AV and a firewall, but one is £10 more expensive. I’m not even looking at the packaging options!  :wacko:

            I asked my wife, “Where do you want to go for our anniversary?” It warmed my heart to see her face melt in sweet appreciation. “Somewhere I haven’t been in a long time!” she said. So I suggested, “How about the kitchen?” And that’s when the fight started….

            I used that in my wedding speech. Not everyone laughed…  :wacko:  :yahoo:

                No nothing has been changed in that respect. It’s not at the top of my list of to do but I’ll keep it in mind.

                If nothing’s changed, it might just be the cookie for the site expiring. My computer’s always on, and pretty much always logged in, so that could be the reason that I’m not seeing it regularly.

                  One issue I’ve had since day one is random log outs. Sometimes it will be days before the site logs me out, some times it will do it a few times a day. Not a big issue, but it just happens and the bugs forum was front and central, so though I’d mention it.

                  I’ve noticed it a few times too, but it always seems to coincide with changes to the site, so thought it was supposed to happen.

                  I wasn’t on the site yesterday, but I refreshed the page today (I always leave it open), and I’d been logged out again. I didn’t go on the computer at all yesterday, and haven’t used Ccleaner or anything similar. Have there been any changes to the backend? It’s nothing major, but it’s got me curious 🙂

                    I’ve been moving everything away from Microsoft and Yahoo, since Yahoo had the massive breach (twice!), and Hotmail played the password game with me a year or two back. I use Yahoo for anything that looks like it’ll spam me now, and Hotmail for a handful of sites like this, just because a few people have my Hotmail address. It might be worth you doing the same John.

                      Must admit I had to Google pretty much all of them. Seeing as no one else has posted one recently, here’s one:- ‘Top of the line in utility sports, Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts!’ It’s stretching things a bit but it’s a song.

                      Funnily enough, I was singing this to Ellen earlier ‘Twelve feet long and two lanes wide, 65 tons of American pride’ :yahoo:

                          Sounds like it’s just Hotmail being useless again then unfortunately 🙁

                            Sorry to hear about her ill health 🙁

                            Tell whoever’s looking at Facebook for her to go here:

                            https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications

                            It will list all the apps that have been given permission to access her FB account. I suspect that it’s one of these quizzes or personality tests that are currently so popular (which celeb do you look like etc.). Remove any that they don’t recognise, and change the password again afterwards, for good measure. My mother and way too many of my friends fall for these quite regularly  :wacko:

                              It’s happened again only days after changing the password. Your account or password is incorrect. If you don’t remember your password, reset it now. I went to ask Hotmail why, but changed my mind All you have to do is fill out a simple TECHNICIAN HELP FORM and a technician will call you to help you out the next day. There is a service charge of £39.99 which you will have to pay to the technician after the issue has been resolved. I give up

                              How are you trying to log in? That sounds a lot like a scam to me. If you haven’t already, run an antivirus and anti malware scan, just in case.

                                A few for the older Forumites  :good:

                                An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years. He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed the gentleman to hear 100%
                                The elderly gentleman went back in a month to the doctor and the doctor said, ‘Your hearing is perfect.. Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again.’
                                The gentleman replied, ‘Oh, I haven’t told my family yet….. I just sit around and listen to the conversations….. I’ve changed my will three times!’

                                Two elderly gentlemen from a retirement centre were sitting on a bench under a tree when one turns to the other and says: ‘Slim, I’m 83 years old now and I’m just full of aches and pains. I know you’re about my age. How do you feel?’
                                Slim says, ‘I feel just like a newborn baby.’
                                ‘Really!? Like a newborn baby!?’
                                ‘Yep. No hair, no teeth, and I think I just wet my pants.’

                                An elderly couple had dinner at another couple’s house, and, after eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen.
                                The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, ‘Last night we went out to a new restaurant and it was really great… I would recommend it very highly.’
                                The other man said, ‘What is the name of the restaurant?’
                                The first man thought and thought and finally said, ‘what is the name of that flower you give to someone you love?
                                You know…. The one that’s red and has thorns.’
                                ‘Do you mean a rose?’
                                ‘Yes, that’s the one,’ replied the man. He then turned towards the kitchen and yelled, ‘Rose, what’s the name of that restaurant we went to last night?’

                                Hospital regulations require a wheel chair for patients being discharged. However, while working as a student nurse, I found one elderly gentleman already dressed and sitting on the bed with a suitcase at his feet, who insisted he didn’t need my help to leave the hospital.
                                After a chat about rules being rules, he reluctantly let me wheel him to the elevator.
                                On the way down I asked him if his wife was meeting him.
                                ‘I don’t know,’ he said. ‘She’s still upstairs in the bathroom changing out of her hospital gown.’

                                A senior citizen said to his eighty-year old buddy:
                                ‘So I hear you’re getting married?’
                                ‘Yep!’
                                ‘Do I know her?’
                                ‘Nope!’
                                ‘This woman, is she good looking?’
                                ‘Not really.’
                                ‘Is she a good cook?’
                                ‘Naw, she can’t cook too well.’
                                ‘Does she have lots of money?’
                                ‘Nope! Poor as a church mouse.’
                                ‘Well, then, is she good in bed?’
                                ‘I don’t know.’
                                ‘Why in the world do you want to marry her then?’
                                ‘Because she can still drive!’

                                Three old guys are out walking.
                                First one says, ‘Windy, isn’t it?’
                                Second one says, ‘No, it’s Thursday!’
                                Third one says, ‘So am I. Let’s go get a beer..’

                                A man was telling his neighbour, ‘I just bought a new hearing aid. It cost me four thousand pounds, but it’s state of the art.. It’s perfect.’
                                ‘Really,’ answered the neighbour . ‘What kind is it?’
                                ‘Twelve thirty..’

                                Morris, an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical.
                                A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street with a gorgeous young woman on his arm.
                                A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, ‘You’re really doing great, aren’t you?’
                                Morris replied, ‘Just doing what you said, Doc: ‘Get a hot mamma and be cheerful.”
                                The doctor said, ‘I didn’t say that.. I said, ‘You’ve got a heart murmur; be careful.’

                                A little old man shuffled slowly into an ice cream parlour and pulled himself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool.. After catching his breath, he ordered a banana split.
                                The waitress asked kindly, ‘Crushed nuts?’
                                ‘No,’ he replied, ‘Arthritis.’

                                  Anyway, OFC YouTube has mullered the footage a lot (might try Vimeo soon) but I’d appreciate feedback regarding how it plays on your devices.

                                  As you say, the quality’s not great, but it works fine in Chrome, and on the OnePlus One  :good:

                                      … I wanted to see if there was a significant slow-down in the HDD rpm as it’s still under the WD 5 yr warranty for another 12 months or so…

                                      Back everything up and put the drive into a spare machine. Run a diagnostic that writes to the drive, but on a loop. See if you can kill it off while it’s still under the warranty  :good:

                                            One issue I’ve had since day one is random log outs. Sometimes it will be days before the site logs me out, some times it will do it a few times a day. Not a big issue, but it just happens and the bugs forum was front and central, so though I’d mention it.

                                            I’ve noticed it a few times too, but it always seems to coincide with changes to the site, so thought it was supposed to happen.
