Thanks, Thomas. I up-dated. But I wonder why Chrome didn't notify me that there were updates that needed to be downloaded.

It probably was slow. See whether if the issue persists...

Just popping in to say that it has been 3 weeks since anyone posted to this thread. Guess we have all been busy doing our gardening chores, family stuff and pet stuff.

The adenium forum in general has slowed down a lot. I, myself, have just been busy enjoying the beautiful Fall weather (highs of 85F lows of 75F) and have been working a lot. Slowly starting to prep things for winter (greenhouse, etc), even though I'm still a ways out.

Yes, I imagine folks in the continental U.S. at the higher latitudes have been getting ready for the winter. In the meantime, I've been waiting for cooler weather (below 90F), which would be spring time at my latitude.

@tinng321 and I had traded seeds and I received a lot from her. There's purple okra and ghost peppers that I just recently planted. Then just received the following seeds from Tin:

Bitter Melon

Long Gourd (calabasa in my culture)

Malabar Spinach

Luffa acutangula (patola)

Peperomia pellucida

I'm familiar with all except Peperomia pellucida.

So...will be planning and planting these seeds shortly.

Well...I googled it and they say it is eaten in salad and soup? I hope @tinng321 will pipe in and tell how to cultivate as well as how to eat the Peperomia pellucida.

Sure is pretty enough to eat. I'll look for some.

@tinng321T-mailed this info.

tinng321 said:We use it for salad. Beef with onion salad or shrimp salad.

Looks delish...wish I had some Peperomia growing right now! I'm in the mood for a salad meal.

Thanks, Tin!

Sharp SUV, James! When we lived stateside a number of years ago we bought a new/used pick-up. Then we went to a lake for a nice and quiet moment in our lives. What did we do there? Why, fishing, of course!

Didn't catch squat...but had a lovely time.

Hopefully won't be getting stuck, but it has happened to me in my truck before. All part of the fun, I guess.

Sounds like a relaxing time, KD!

I have Windows Defender in my ASUS pc notebook. Do I really need the McAfee security system?

I had McAfee and it allowed so much crap in that I had to go to Best Buy to have my laptop professionally cleaned of all that infection. I would not recommend McAfee to a friend.

I was able to uninstall the McAfee web advisor, but cannot seem to uninstall the McAfee Livesafe program. Hopefully getting rid of the web advisor will stop McAfee from popping up with messages that my computer is not protected.

We'll just wait and see.

I'm sorry I can't assist with removal, but I can tell you that I agree with Greene. I have only known bad experiences with McAfee
