Unless you switch to a cable provider eg Virgin, then any new provider will use the same faulty line, perhaps with exception of FTTC (like BT infinity) which will use fibre optic cable to the cabinet (the green box somewhere near your home, or even FTTP, which will use fibre optic cable from the exchange to your home.
The problem is that it's intermittent, maybe weather related? Water in the connection, or wind affecting overhead lines, or interference as mentioned above, who knows. Talk Talk will be reluctant to get BT Openreach to investigate as the problem is intermittent and it will cost Talk Talk money.
I'd say keep on at Talk Talk to sort it, as if you change provider you'll just end up starting the whole thing over again.
I use the ESR (Extended Support Release) version of Firefox, currently 17.0.2. It is intended for groups and large organisations, but is fine for home use too. The main reason being that it only updates major security issues and bug fixes, rather than the all new singing and dancing features, I just got a bit hacked off being a beta tester for Mozilla lol

Get rid of it, serves no real purpose and could be seen as an intimidating barrier to newbies.
As an aside, please can we have a nice glossy black colour theme.
Here's another favourite of mine....Kitty, Daisy & Lewis cover the Canned Heat classic "Going Up The Country".

A great rockabilly twist on the Woodstock anthem.

I`ve always liked cover versions of well known songs where the people doing the cover make the song their own ...

I agree, I like Nouvelle Vague, covers of Punk and New Wave classics like this one

I would be interested in trying something non-windows but what about compatibility? If I write a document, can Windows users still open it? Can I even write a document? :veryignorant:

Yes, you can use OpenOffice (included in most Linux distros) and as far as other compatibility goes you can use WINE (allows Windows apps to run on Linux).
There are many Linux distros out there, Ubuntu being the most popular, but Zorin is closest to Windows, in appearance anyway. I'm far from an expert, still finding my way around, but happily enjoying this site and the forum on Zorin.
I ditched Microsoft a while ago and made the move to Linux, well almost. I chose , a flavour of Linux, based on Ubuntu (despite it sounding like a Bond villain lol ). It is described as "The gateway to Linux for Windows users", so far so good, Oh and it's free.

She currently has a 4 year old HP laptop which cost around £500 and is struggling ...

Back up ALL her important data and try a fresh OS install, you'd be surprised at how much quicker it will be afterwards.

Don't undersell it..."burger trailer" = A Mobile Catering Unit, opens up the possibility of other outdoor events where there may be opportunities to cash in, just a thought.
You could try this but it will always be a trade off between space and quality.
