Sorry to hear about your bad luck Pete - non of us can even begin to understand how bad you must be feeling Sad

Just out of interest, did you have surge protectors where the stats were plugged into?

In light of the unfortunate post this refers to, I have made safeguards against this happening, as I would be gutted as Pete is, if it ever happened to me.

Therefore, in case no one else has them, I have found a mutli socket in Currys for £40 called a BELKIN Surge protector. It has 6 sockets in it and will prevent such things happening, or at least reducing the risk.

Hope you are feeling better Pete.
