is a good place to look. They do a free trial - so give it a whirl.

I downloaded it 18(?) months ago and find it very useful.

Horrible interface.
I have a reasonably large monitor, with 1280*1024.
I want to be able to view 6 hours at a stretch, but it's not possible.
It's also annoyingly slow, and prone to not working.
There is also the (minor) problem that anyone with your email address can
see all the information you've entered.

Fairy nuff, it was much better before they "improved" it.

Ah, so it does...but it would be difficult to guess the fake email addy
I used and I don't really care if people know what TV progs I watch

www.digiguide.com It's good because it's a proper application not a web
page. I have it open all the time :-)

I've no problems really with Radio Times. Been using it for a while,
downloading to my Palm. (Up to now not had a connection at home.)

Works for me...

Yeah, I like Digiguide.
Two versions, an application that runs locally and updates it database
when it can, and an online version. I use that later, as I can go
straight to my listings & searches from any of the 3 PC's I use.

Digiguide has searches and email reminders, but reminders arrive shortly
before the program starts. Not what I really want.

Do any of the guides offer the ability to load up program search
criteria on a permanent, on going search basis. Such that I'd get an
email say once a week that says "programs X, Y, Z that you are watching
out for are on this next week at A, B, C"?

I used it for three years but didn't renew this time

Do you know if you can get digiguide to list the channels in order ? - my
ITV channels are out of sync numerically, and its winding me up (only
just subscribed)

Join the Digiguide forums and post the question there - plenty of very
clever scripts doing the rounds, and from what I saw from d/l'ing one of the
video tutorials the search capability is fantastic (and complex)

Click on the Advanced button, customise a page with the channels you watch,
then bookmark it for future use. I've created bookmarks for terrestrial tv,
digital tv and radio.

I use and like it too, but the above does irritate me as well. Thought
it was such a no-brainer that I emailed their tech support to ask how to
vary the lead time on the email, and was told it wasn't yet possible,
but was coming in their next upgrade.
