Thanks for your help Kit. I eventually found that you have to be a PAYED subscriber. I tried to subscribe but when it came to the payment page it kept screwing up and sending me to some other webpage. Giving your bankcard details to some strange website is not a good idea. I sent an email informing them of the problem, but got nothing back. Im going to post my entry here for everyone to see. I spent to much time on them to just throw away. So, thankyou very much your help.
