I have an NATPC tablet and all has been well unyil now.

Whenevet I try to access BROWSER or AMAZON from the desktop icons I get an advert for BT Open Zone. Sounds odd but its true. I cant see any way to solve this ( I am not IT savvy) so any help is appreciated.

Is your tablet connecting to a public BT wireless network?

I have just switched on my tablet again and believe it or not things are back to normal!

I dont have a clue what went wrong and hope that this problem doesnt occur again.

your tablet was connecting to the OpenZone or BTFon portion of your BTHub.

RE: A very odd problem with my tablet

Hi yes I think you are right. The problem came back so via "settings" I disabled the open zone and fon part of the wifi. BT is my ISP but neither of those two.

Anyway seems ok again now.

Thanks for your help.
