That's not something I buy from Amazon. I have a pleasant walk to the local store for that sort of thing. For food too.

Old browser... Looks like IE on Win XP?

When you put the link in the box and click ok, does it do one of these numbers?

I'd almost make a Youtube Tutorial on how to do this in different browsers...but 1) it's probably already been done and 2) my connection would crack under the pressure.

Eight-year-old computer. I can't have anything newer.

No, it looks exactly like the picture I posted. I think I already said that it appears in the box without the "url" brackets, exactly the way it looks if I just copy and paste it directly into the dialog box.

I understand.

Interesting...

I'm not exactly sure how it works for you then. Because all I do is copy, paste, OK, and type.

How does it look after you click OK? I wonder if we are on the same page or not...

I do it exactly the way I described in my post to Desertstriker. I copy and paste the url and type in the brackets myself. You can see how it looks in every post where I buy something. I think there are one or two of them spread around.

I guess, whatever works for you is fine.

1 Digitone Call Blocker

I am tired of getting collection calls for people who used to have my phone number years ago. These collection people will not stop even when told I do not know the people they are looking for.

One nice thing about moving and turning off landline service was that I don't have to deal with those any more... used to get them ALL the time at my old number. Don't really get them on the cell but if I do at least there's an option to block calls from the number of anyone I don't want calling me.

However I used to use a tip I picked up somewhere, which was to "play nice" with the repeat offender collection agencies by offering to give them a new number for person they were trying to contact. The number? (202) 326-2222. That always seemed to keep them from calling back again.

The really bad part is that they sell their lists to other collection agencies, so when one stops calling, a new one will begin calling, and this will keep repeating over and over again forever it seems.

"I always answer Charlie's Whore House you provide the dough we provide the hoe. How may I help you

" to unrecognized numbers that also keeps them from calling back
added benefit it keeps those darned pollsters from calling
