Perhaps a new thread should have been started.
Surprised the mods haven't jumped on this.

Perhaps you should read my posts more carefully.
I posted:-
Acen - you started this thread about your firewall problem and it has drifted a bit off topic. As it seems to have generated some interest I will let it run if you are happy with that.
The forum software is not good and splitting a thread is not easy. Last time I tried it a number of posts got lost and they are not recoverable.

But on the other hand I hadn't read your comment.
I was interested in the "Free Firewall" thread but lost interest when the UK TV discussion took over.
On the other hand some people might have been interested in the UK TV part but didn't read thre thread as they weren't interested in the Free Firewall thread.
So when a thread gets off topic it is, in my opinion, worth splitting to a new thread.
Sometimes it happens that two similar threads are running that might be worth combining into one thread.
