Thanks. Just run the spybot which removed 60-odd files but still unable to run the live updates - this is the message I get.

All very annoying and frustrating. I personally believe that comp hackers and virus spreaders should be tortured and shot. Either that or be forced to put their 'skills' to good use. Why do these fuckers always want to destroy and destruct computer systems?

I'd run the other 2,especially CW Shredder

Then head over to
and post your problems

Last resort is using their program Hijack This at and posting the log to the above appropriate forum

Thanks again, will give that a try.

Your help is very much appreciated.

And if I do get this fixed the wife might, just might, stop nagging me about it...

Nothing worse than nagging wife

As Gun N Roses sang...even when their buried 6 feet under you can still hear them complain

If your worried about security in the short term then is the place to start...shields up and the leak test will tell you how vulnerable you are and there are 3 or 4 other measures which if your on the latest Windows Platforms are essential for proper security

One other site that I've posted numerous times has links and forums of all persuasions
for security

Tea last night was a ruby murray, with my brother, who is not too well up on indian food, and ordered a steak........numbnut!, I had a chicken madras, I cant eat anything less than Madras strength, also Sambar is a hot sauce, similar to Madras, but with ginger, chillis, and lemon.
I have left a take away for you in the forum canteen, they had run out of naan bread, so I got you a chapati, I have also left 24 bottles of stella in there, I realise this isn,t much for you!, but it will do until you reach Mr Patels take away, prior to going to the pub for a lock in.

I had this constantly with Norton. I don't think its a virus/worm/malware problem just Norton. I never found anything nasty when I scanned so I've abandoned Norton and use AVG.
