Thank you once again for coming to the rescue ChuckFickens, I do wish that
when you download things they would not stick on things that you haven't asked for
Grrrrrrrr.
Usually sec when you are installing programs it will pre-tick boxes assuming you want all the add ons associated with the program. Generally you can untick these boxes before you install it.
