 Hello. Hope you are well. I don't normally reply to people who top
 post but I'll assume you are new to computers and make an exception
 this once. If you would like a link to the newsgroup charter then
 let me know and I'll dig it out for you (or you could get a friend
 to show you how to do it)

 There is a search engine that a lot of us more experienced users use
 called google. There are others available but google is the
 most popular. If you wish to find something out about moodle in
 google then load your web browser (I'm guessing it's Internet
 Explorer) and go to http://www.google.co.uk and type moodle into
 the empty box in the centre of your screen. If you would more help
 on accessing webpages or searching for more information then give
 me a nod. I have some resources I have been using with my year 7s
 which you could work through.

Made me laugh anyway, having just read the 'Want to read an old disc'
thread in here, which was more about how to stop top-posting than
about reading old discs!!!
