Hope that helps. Cheers, Al. I just want to say, thank you so much to Michael Fletcher, for helping me out again. Spent ages (as in almost an hour and a half) trying to get this Joiku connection sorted, we actually managed to get it working on No Encryption, but it just would not work on any other setting. We think it might be a WEP problem, that the (I hope I get this right now) hardware and drivers might be interfering in the WEP connection between the netbook and the particular phone I have, which is a Nokia E71. I just received an e-mail from a Joiku connected blog, where somebody is having exactly the same problem as me, same phone and it looks like the same type of netbook. We eventually managed to get me connected via bluetooth, I have a bluetooth dongle that actually works out of the box on my netbook, installed a particular bluetooth program, and got connected straight away, once the program was configured. That makes it even more amazing, because I can get rid of Joiku, get my money back, as Joiku have promised a refund if I cant get it to work, plus, I can get rid of the Orange Dongle as well, which is costing me £21 a month to keep going, with continuous crashes, so I am much better off, all round. YIPPPEEEE.......Amazing. Thank you so much Mike, I really appreciate all the time you spent helping.
