AMOFW: No errors reported and several lines that said 'Success', so I think that's a Good Thing?
Mike J: I wouldn't mind uninstalling Freeserve, but I can't see how to. Only the 'Connection Kit' part is on the 'Add+Remove Programs' list (the Kit is the part which goes on to dial several different numbers if the default one doesn't connect). If I remove Freeserve by deleting the relevant folders, I won't get it all.

I'm not that stupid. Not usually. Well, not in this case. Although:
CHEEL - thank you thank you thank you, you wonderful person!!!
I can't believe I didn't think of that; I'm sure I've had the same problem before.
BUT... can someone explain to me why my landlord's PC wasn't affected in the same way?
Great, now I can post some embarassing pictures on the bashes forum.
