causes my PC to lock up. Never had any lockup problem with the old siteware

BTW, could I have reported this problem with the 'Report' button; or is that reserved for abusive posts?

Don't know; never did download it! I suspected it might be malware so pulled the Wi-fi dongle out. Might be helpful if the site had a smaller file size limit for uploads; anything larger than, say, 2MB (there's rarely a need for anything bigger), would require authorisation. Members should be encouraged to reduce image size before posting, to save server space and download time/bandwidth. Pity the poor members on dial-up.
