Ah, okay... so my problem was ignoring the updates for a few days then? Must admit that I have been busy and my internet connection is not that quick so I've tended to update every few days rather than every day! Thanks for clearing that up - is there an argument that the update process should be more clever than that, as I'd guess it'd put off "newbies"... ?
