I don't know if this is because of Quick Time or what it is, but I had Quick Time already on my computer, and then when I wanted to see the trailer for the new Star Trek film, the site insisted I download a new version of Quick Time. I did so, and absolute chaos resulted. The next time I tried to start up my computer I got lots of hardware not recognised messages. Every time I start the computer it keeps telling me it can't connect me to a network. I can't connect to my ISP. It wants me to phone a USn phone no. to find my nearest ISP.

And what's more, my friendly IT guy at work is on holiday so I can't ask him what to do.

well, I saw it tonight, and boy am I disappointed. Peter Jackson has betrayed my trust. I won't spoil anything, but he made(I think) totally unneccesary changes.
beautiful and amazing visually, but Tolkien is cringing.

I also saw it Thursday night, it was released here on Wednesday. I agree the changes were puzzling, though they didn't spoil the film for me. It was ...EPIC. Some of the changes did perhaps get information across that would have taken considerable extra footage otherwise.
