Its XP, we asked about the recovery disk and were told they don't send them anymore.

Apparantly there is a way, but I can't find any documentation telling you how.

Many thanks, I do not remember installing it.

The network problem seems to have settled now too.

Thanks for your assistance

Many thanks, do I need to do anything else?

Regards

Daz

Hopefully I got this right

Hi

I've done that and it seems to have solved this.

The wireless network also seems to be behaving better now.

One last thing, I appear to have a program called 'safari' on my desktop. I...

I've turned teatimer back on, and installed Comodo firewall.

But during the restart following comodo install I started getting the rundll error again. It appears to be looking for the same file as...

Having recently had to have a clean up via the help forum on here, I have come to realise just how vulnerable we can be.

My brother recently bought a new laptop, which comes to my surprise...

Should I re-enable teatimer now?

I'm beginning to wonder if there could be some interference with the signal.

This lunchtime it seems to have been stable.

Perhaps I should leave things be for a few days and see what happens....

Thats my next idea, I'll try it and see

As an update it is showing as not connected, but the activity light is going crazy.

What logs do you need?

I am having problems with the machine.

It keeps dropping my wireless network connection, which it didn't used to do.

Any ideas as to why this may be?

Thanks Tashi, thats exactly what I did in my request for help.

I'm not really thinking which is best, but which to avoid.

Are there any utilities that you can use to test the abilities of firewalls to make sure they are as secure as they should be?

Hi Shaba,

Thanks for the tips. I have to get back to work now, but I will do as you suggest this evening.

With regard to firewalls, my home network is sat behind a dedicated Draytek hardware...

Not on this machine, thanks for your help.

As for my desktop, that is another matter. I ran Kaspersky last night and it found many infections, but the log file is too big to post on the forum in...

The antivirus program I use is not on that list, and is almost forced upon...

Hi

Thanks for that. I just got home and spotted the response.

I didn't know how advisors picked up on further posts from myself

Thats what I meant by hands on.

Basically you will be 'helping' a fictionary person by looking at practice codes.

I'm thinking of applying to one of the teacher sites, mainly since I have received help here (in the process of cleaning my laptop) and I would like to think I can give back something for what I have...

I have posted a request for assistance in the appropriate forum, but I was wondering if continuing to use a computer that is known to be infected will cause the infection to spread?

Or should it...

Sophos appears to claim to have solved the problem, but Spybot still reports an infection.
