They are all still there and working well. If you can’t see them you may need to update your internet browser. The following ones are all popular and do a great job. I use the first three listed and do have Internet Explorer 8 installed on my machines. Click on each picture to go to the download for free page of each browser. If you get stuck, come and see Mr Rafferty or email him at gpyear4@gmail.com
