Before going away anywhere where I'm likely to need the dongle, I connect my
laptop to my domestic broadband, and make sure that it's fully up to date. I
also have automatic MS updates turned off - but you can't do that with *all*
3rd party applications.

Actually, it's not - it's already committed to '3' in the form of 3Pay
credit. <g>

I see no point whatsoever in using some of my credit to buy an add-on while
I've still got 135MB of free usage left - it would just be wasted. Think
what else I may be able to buy with my 50p! <g>
