For 'Windows XP' I use Internet Explorer. Was using IE7 but have updated to IE8 which means I have to use an included mini programme to use stuff designed for the earlier edition.
If I'd stuck with the old version or Firefox, Opera or Safari this wouldn't have happened.

That one lets you add several quotes Katie. To reply to a post with a quote, go to the post involved, click the quote button (without the +) and you should have the posting frame you were looking for.

Sorry if this is a bit long winded, but it works for me.
You can also do it from other threads, but that tends to be complex.
