It's usually trying to sell you an anti virus program but the site you are trying to visit may be known to be contaminated

Actually, I can't get Google - it does what Jackie's is doing, it says:

Warning: Visiting this site may harm your computer!!


The Riddle goes like this Jackie:

As I was going to St Ives
I met a man with 7 wives,
each wife had 7 sacks
Each sack had 7 cats
each cat had 7 kittens.
Kits, cats, sacks and wives
How many were there going to St Ives?

Most people of course, try and add up all the cats, wives etc, and overlook the actual start of the poem (As I was going to St Ives) which gives the correct answer of one person was going to St Ives!

1) as I was going to St Ives etc
2) Archie ??
And ALL the entries were showing, under the heading

Don't know what's up, but I sure ain't googling !

We had a maths teacher who used to give us a quiz at the end of term. We were always being tripped up by obvious questions.
There was one that went something like: an express train carrying 500 passengers and travelling at an average speed of 60mph, leaves London at 2.30pm, heading for Manchester. A goods train, carrying x amount of weight, and travelling at 35mph, leaves Manchester at 1pm, heading for London.
Which train is nearest to London when they meet?
Of course, we'd go into a frenzy of calculations and would throw guess after guess at him until the penny dropped and someone finally said: Hang on, they'd be in the same place, when they met!!

Edit: Have checked my anti-virus and spyware etc and it's all happy. Ancestry was down earlier, now Google's playing up, where will it all end...?

Daphne Report 31 Jan 2009 15:27

You can still use the original one later when they sort themselves out .The problem is at their end not with your computer.

Hi Again Shimms
I just didn't realize that was the way things were.
I am a bit backward when it comes to different religions.
So once again I apologize.
(((((((((((((Hugs))))))))))))))

Years ago I think in Ireland women never went to funerals they stayed at home and organised the wake. Remember a friend of my mothers telling us that once. She was Irish
