To run from Windows, select "Start" then "Run" Type "cmd". This will open a DOS Window. Type into the Window "tracert www.whatever" where whatever is the url you want to trace, then press "Return".

The major step forward with version 4 was the GUI. It was awful on version 3.x.

No, detector vans did work, but when was the last time you saw one?
These days they simply assume every household has a TV.
For me, it's Top gear, Spooks, Dr Who, the one about the pathologists and one or two documentaries on BBC4.

No. the licence is for TV receiver equipment. This argument came up when VCRs appeared. People tried to get away with a VCR and a monitor.

The Tv Licence is required because a Tv (CRT) is a transmitter and it`s the IF (the signal to the tube)that the detector vans/hand held devices pick up...actually,it`s a field strength meter,much the same as the Super Snooper that detects radar speed traps..and that is how they know which channel you are watching.So,is there an IF transmitted from a flat screen?.

The CRT is the display only and takes a video signal. There is no IF stage and no licence required.
A TV had a crt but now has plasma or LCD display, an audio amplifier and speaker(s) and a tv receiver/decoder which requires an RF (radio frequency) input and a licence.
The IF (intermediate frequengy) stage is part of the receiver, and this apparently bounced a signal back up the aerial and was what the detectors detected.
