Vinaka (hearty thanks). Sorry for slash thing earlier. Will follow advice and be more descriptive (and hopefully correct with detail) from now on. Your explanation are the ones that helped me log in and I was able to access internal and external sites like maemo site too. I was unable to install applications.

Describe 1:

Came to maemo site, " http://maemo.org/intro/ "

and pop up appeared asking to accept cookies, i checked reject all from site since not sure about any antivirus on n900 so to be safe.
Went to download section and then to multimedia page and touched the install button next to FM Radio Player. It showed application manager downloading application and then preparing to install. After 10 seconds I got the error application could not be found. Same for other programs like M media player. (Forgot the exact error, am home now and it's raining heavily otherwise would be writing this from uni and know exact error) But referring to this post

http://forums.internettablettalk.com...d.php?p=791871

error similar to mine, i chek manager log and it says (first lines) "apt-worker: ignoring version from wrong domain: mediaplayer-|10n-ptpt 6.0+r7611+0m5"

What does this mean? Is it I should accept all cookies? Is uni wifi the problem?

Describe 2:
Found post about program to protect n900 if stolen called smscon. http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...ghlight=smscon

Could not find it on download section. I searched "smscon" in search but says "There is no result matching the search criteria. Please try again." Any advice on this would be very appreciated. Warm wishes and ni sa bula vinaka (warm hearty thanks) for help.
