| 6. Author: brian Date: Thu 7th May 2026. 12:42 I had an issue a couple weeks ago, a weird image popped up. I found a broken link. So it should not be happening now. If possible a screen shot would be great to try and track anything down. Yep very wary of any messages that ask you to fix something ____________________ contact: email me File Share: https://share2.co.uk ParsTV: https://ParsTV.co.uk Reply |
