Vista Story

Friend rings me up, unable to connect to Internet, due to no ISP.

I say, come round and use my wireless network, all you do is plug in and away you go. (as happened with my XP laptop, plugged the wireless card in and away it went)

When She came round, I saw She had vista, but its an uprgade so should connect straight away

3 hours later, no connection (it was there, but blocked it and gave me no way of getting round it), She left, somewhat disappointed.

Started new job this week, my PC has been "DownGraded" to XP from Vista, "DowngradedW is used loosely.
