I am neither an amator nor a commercial user , but having a PhD in Computing Sciences and working in front of the computer up to 2.00 to 3.00 during nights or mornings each day for mostly development of very complicated software .

It seems that there is no hope to reach a solution to this problem . I do not know why .
