V Stuff is Live

Nothing is 'free' especially not from VM. It's paid for somewhere in the subscription charges

I nearly went into one regarding broadband revenue subsidising the unprofitable TV and likely not much better telco but I'll save that for another thread.

Its just the way it is classed as a product.

The facts are available for all to see, I'm surprised that you're not aware of the Virgin Media Support group. If you use a news reader application such as Windows Mail in Vista you can access it by subscribing to "virginmedia.support.broadband.cable". I'd recommend reading through some of it just to put yourself a bit more in the picture. You will find plenty of comments along the lines of (and I quote from a new post the day before yesterday complaining of months of poor speed):-

Apologies if this is off topic but I think that it's important to quash any lies along the lines of "there is nothing wrong with the primary product" before people start believing it.

Hey Moldova, you can still avail yourself of the Storage, provided that you can find your way in and then have enough time to wait for it to appear.
My clients would have my guts for garters if I tried to palm them off with such an abysmal web application.

Its the Storage program you have to download that's incompatible everything else works and as I said FF3 is unsupported but FF2 actually is supported.

I know, but you can still use the storage directly.

Had a couple of goes and it keeps downloading the back up software which Linux will not run so gave up, may try tomorrow as only really interested in case someone asks about it on a call, not really bothered for personal use might give the free prints a go though.

there are 2 different things. V Stuff backup and V stuff storage that allows backing up using what I assume is a java applet. It appears to run on FF3 here. That may well require the software I do not know ill try it on a different machine in a bit
