I currently use tvguide.co.uk as an Electronic Programme Guide as I don't a 'smart' TV with a built in one and the Windows Media Center EPG service has never worked for me. The problem is their Javascript leaks like a sieve. Leaving the page open will eat through 2GB of RAM in a day with IE and even the latest Chrome only stand up for about 3 days.
Does anyone have any suggestions for an alternative? Only has to cover free to air for me as I'm a tight-wad and a Murdoch free zone.

I guess that must be online somewhere, don't know if it's as good as tvguide. There's some nice features on there if only they would sort out their leaks. I'll have a hunt around, just wondered if anyone had a favourite but I guess most people just use the guide on their digital box.

DigiGuide[^]is the best of the best!
Available via the web and as an app it is well worth the (small) subscription.
Personally I use the DabDig plugin to control my TV card/DVBViewer and never miss a show.

Thank you, it doesn't have quite the simplicity or the ammount of info on screen of tvguide but as you point there are a lot more things you can get by subscribing. I'll give it a go.
I have a dual head system where the TV plus one monitor are attached to the same machine so I like to have the live stream and a full screen guide up at the same time. digiguide looks like it will do the trick.
