Depending on how your computer is set-up, your downloads may open immediately, add themselves to the bottom of your programme list, or do as they wish, The best way to stay sane is to use a free download tool such as www.gozilla.com which will provide easy access and will not loose a link due to a line failure.

LINK COLLECTION:

 The following are links that have appeared in the recent editions of the ITRE World News Letter, we have listed them all together for you  for easy reference.
We hope that you have found some of these helpful or amusing, we would be most grateful if you could send in any links you have found that you feel would be useful to others or are just plain funny.
Thank you for taking the time to read the News letter and for all the links that have already been sent in, keep them coming!
Shortly we will move to a system of adding all new links on to the; Telefun page at www.itre.org and announcing them in the World News. This will allow the links to be available on an ongoing basis.
