Spyware

Finally after hours of sorting, I've managed to get rid of all the rogue software on my pc to be able to post again. A big thanks to my saviour Rob, who reccommended the excellent site that helped unravel the mess
http.kephyr.com
The scanner is very aptly named bazooka & takes you thru the manual removal process for computer numbskulls like me. So in the future, the moral of the story is to avoid any free software such as comet cursor, mywebsearch, huntbar etc as they are all set out to spy on & wreck your system, despite any false reassurances thay they may give. So now I'm a happy bunny again with plentiful experiences to help anyone unfortunate to land in the same brown stuff!

Cheers

Richard
