In case it is of help to anyone else. I contacted the Proxy company about this problem. They have sent me new Proxy details, as the BBC had Blocked the Original Proxy. They have also given me 10 days free because of the inconvenience. . Louise

That is very helpful and reassuring that your VPN worked on your PC. Makes me hope that my problem is temporary. I do have a paid VPN, "Proxy Solutions" and as I said,it is working ITV player, just not BBC. . Hopefully, my Tech Guru (a 21 year old I used to work with!) is going to Skype me...

I am totally lost with Technology, but I only have the Proxy on my laptop, and in fact access it through the firefox browser. I then choose I player through the search bar, so I may be wrong, but don't think that is an app? Thanks for your advice though. I am hoping that if I try again tomorrow it w...

Hi, is anyone else with a proxy server having problems with accessing the BBC I player site? It is telling me that I can only access if in the uk, but ITV player with the Proxy is fine? This has only happened today.

Dinksy, exactly the same thing happening to me, and the same time frame. I have no objection to the adverts, just the fact that I get a blank screen afterwards. No solution I'm afraid, but you are not alone in this. x

Another vote for Dimitri in Agios. He helped us find and buy our car, and scrapped our old one. x

This is how it caught me in the end. There was no way to stop the countdown. However, so far, I am coping ok. x

Well, I bit the bullet and let it install. So far, so good, although I seem to have lost my Proxy Server from the Network page. I had to sign in to facebook again, but everything else seems to be working ok. My main worries was that I would have to do complicated things to get going and would get th...

All your input is appreciated. It's going to upgrade overnight, so think I might try declining the conditions again. See if it works a second time.

Thank you both. A couple of weeks ago I found that windows 10 had been installed. I declined to accept the terms a nd conditions and it reverted back to my original system. I had hoped that would be the end of it .

Thanks for that. I am wondering to maybe let it do it's thing, and if I really can't cope presumably I could take the laptop to our local computer shop and they could help.

Thank You Warwick. I just thought that if It upgraded I would have to change things? e g re sign into things I can't remember passwords for, and some bits would work differently? We don't know any small children/ young people to help if anything goes wrong.

Hi All, going back to this subject, my laptop keeps trying to install windows 10. I've managed to foil it just now, by putting it back to 8 o clock tonight, but , before then can anyone tell me how to stop it permanently? I am totally useless with technology. I followed the advice on here and found ...
