Sure am using AOL for my internet. Slightly slower compared to through my BT line, which I have for my laptop.

Have just found the 3 day EPG and I seemed to set a 'reminder' by mistake. Took 20 minutes to work out how to remove said 'reminder,' not least cos there seemed to be no reference to it in the help section. Also, quite why they can't use words which make reference to recording a programme such as video or record etc is beyond me.

Out of interest, how do you programme this thing to say record a specific channel between specific times and allow for overruns - say if I wanted to 'remind' the box to go to BBC1 for the FA Cup SF but allow an extra hour in case of extra time?

Also, I see the EPG only goes for a max of 72 hours in advance (which I r[resume means I can only set these riminder thingys 72 hours in advance also). What if I want to record a programme, say, in 6 days time? How do I set the box to tape that show?

Thanks very much for all the assistance thus far btw.
