I'm between options 2 & 3 - hence 3

Answer above please - worth the money? Seems a good programme to use - received & watched the free DVD today.

I only meant that because a commercial/industrial investor like yourself may say that the above poll is unfair because of the cost of a property - ie: 1 commercial property you bought might have been worth $1million & you might have bought 2 of these in the past 2 years; whereas someone else...

(Note: The poll above refers to the majority of investors, as most I assume buy or build houses or units - FOR COMMERCIAL/INDUSTRIAL, ETC INVESTORS THIS POLL APPLIES TO YOU AS WELL - P.S. A block of 6 units for example means 6 IPs for this poll) The reasoning behind this question is a couple...

Looking into this at the moment however with my income being Salary & Commissions it's difficult for my employer to deduct the correct amount of tax each month as the commissions vary from month to month - sometimes it's a lot, sometimes nothing.

Many thanks Duncan. I now have to Internet back. I did a system restore which restored my computer back to 3 days ago & then installed both Firefox & Thunderbird - Wow! What a difference! My Dad's got Firefox on his Apple Mac & likes it! Cheers! :)

If I change to Firefox or Safari, I'll have to add all my favourite links to websites again right? Also changing to Firefox doesn't alter Microsoft Outlook - I can still use this to access my emails??

I'm on 512k through AAPT. I did restart the machine.
