My crummy, stress filled computer story and being run around by Norton - Symantec. A warning for others.

The Moral of this problem is as ever, Do Not install anything from NORTON.

Norton Programs have a really bad reputation from way back, but survive mainly from Vigorous Advertising and often by being on your Computer when purchased.

Berchman`s suggestion is a good starting point, if that does not cure it come back here again

I had a look online at the new regime and I think it will be closing again soon.

Only a few shops and the prices!!!

I wanted the Nikon 55-300mm so checked pricing - Jessops £280 + shipping compared to Amazon £164 post free

No contest

You can understand why our High Streets are suffering when Amazon, etc can give these prices.

A little while ago I bought a Memory stick online for £10.99 inc.P&P the local Argos had the same Item for £29.00, No contest as you say

What's the difference

Don`t think there is a difference, I think some People just fail to quote the HS bit of the description.

do Google search for SX50 and you get a mixture of results and the SX50 picture when enlarged shows a SX50-HS
