Re: Fred n' speccy
Andrew Try Bob Wilkinson. He did a very good debugger (excuse the language), called SINGLE STEP, for the Speccy. I'm sure he converted it for the SAM or was it the Amstrad. Ask him anyway, he needs a project.

Robert Wilkinson wrote: > > Does anyone know why Outlook Express will not remember my password. > > Bob Wilkinson. (frustrated) Well I don't use Outlook myself (I hate it) but here's my guess, its because you have multiple users/profiles for outlook so it doesn't keep passwords for security reasons.

Its slightly restricted being the free version. Its a full featured newsgroup package and you can send emails from it but not receive. Of course cough up for the full package and you'll get that too plus killfile options. I know your probably thinking 'can't receive emails, what a pile of rubbish' but check it out anyway if you deal with newsgroups you won't regret it.

Does anyone know why Outlook Express will not remember my password. Bob Wilkinson. (frustrated)

Re. I hate Outlook Express.
Martin Fitzpatrick Wrote. There are loads of email programs out there (if thats what you mean)... As for free ones, now thats a different matter. Presumably this is for Win95/98 ...I use Netscape (the whole caboodle) but I don't know whats better than that - no doubt *something* is cos frankly its a bit clunky (but free!). Try: http://www.download.com and search for 'email' (or something similar)... You'll get the lot then! Thanks Martin. I found Navigator on a CD. Tried it. Also downloaded Acorn E-mail. Have now reapraised my views on Outlook Express. Bob Wilkinson.
Re: I hate Outlook Express
James Gasson Wrote. I asked roughly this question on comp.os.os2.networking.misc sometime last year, and got the following reply: Thanks for the reply James. I tried a couple of different programs. Netscape Navigator and Acorn E-mail. Both Lack features that Im using in Outlook Express. Ditched Navigator via the control panel. Guess what... Outlook wouldn't start. Curses.!! Re-installed Outlook Express so all is well. Acorn E-mail is OK for what it is but Outlook is better. It would be I suppose. Acorn comes as a zip file of 1.44 Mb, Bob Wilkinson
Re . Does anyone use the Simcoupe.
Lars Persson Wrote I have n't used SimCoupe that much, but I can't run it from Windows 9x very well. Well it crashes. Have noticed so many other bad things with it. Ok the sound emulation could be on a real time basis so my Sample Editor would work properly. :-) So What other problems have you found on the Simcoupe. Bob Wilkinson.

There is a level skip cheat, though. There's two versions of Manic Miner: Bug Byte version: type 6031769 A 'boot' will appear and you can skip level by holding down the 6 key and also a combination of keys from 1 to 5. (eg press 6+1+3 at the same time, etc) Software Projects version: as above, but the cheat is TYPEWRITER ps - I just laughed when I got told 6031769 was also I cheat in Grand Theft Auto.
