So far the K5IIs has worked with the (Pentax) grip attached. Of course now I've said that I can expect all sorts of problems

Oh, I thought you said Paint your door knocker

Just read an article ref Studio Lighting Set-up Patents. Now I'm afraid to use my light tent in case gents in suits come knocking at the door

I've used the EaseUS Free Partition but once everything was partitioned I uninstalled it. Never had any problems with it except I get an email now and then about their latest greatest.

I think what happened with FF was when I upgraded it didn't like AdBlock and that was preventing FF from fully closing. Since going through the hoops above it seems to be behaving, fingers crossed.

I am beginning to think I need a new desktop computer as the old one is groaning under the weight of the things on it. My main difficulty is deciding what to keep. If I was honest though I think a format of the whole thing would rejuvenate it.

At last I seem to have cured the problem.
1. Unistalled FF including any saved data etc.
2. Run CCleaner + Reg clean.
3. Installed FF.
4. Opened Task Manager.
5. Opened and closed FF a few times.
6. Task Manager showed Process was ending ok.
7. Installed AdBlock.
8. Repeated from 5
So far so good, everything as it should be. Oh Joy

Do they need a (mirror) slap on the wrist

This begs the question, have Ricoh/Pentax got a death wish

That's a comfort, knowing it was the chemist and not my incompetence to blame

PS I liked the images too

Have waited 2 mins before clicking again. Same problem

I've tried waiting Gwyn and I still find I have to go into task manager and kill the Firefox(32bit) process or reboot the computer. I have the Win 8.1 installed on my laptop where the problem is, no problems on Win7 on the "main" computer, can have two FF browsers open at the same time which is useful sometimes. At the moment I'm using Opera and Chrome although I would prefer FF.
