Brilliant, thank you, this has worked to a certain extent. I have the 
calendar installed, and the provider installed, but in the addons box 
there is a yellow exclamation mark, with a message saying 'Requires 
additional items. When I click on the reload remote calendar to get the 
dates on the netbook, it all goes haywire, an alarm box opens and all 
the alarms go off for about 8 alarms and I cant turn it off.

But we are getting there though.

Does anybody know how to get rid of that, and what extra bit the 
provider needs to get it working?

Thank you.,

John.
