as long as you have system restore on then you can restore the system back to an older date - i.e. if it was all ok last week then just pick a date from then and restore back to there - once you've done this update your AVG (or virus protection) immediately and run a full scan

England 2006 Range Rover Sport TDV6 HSE Java Black

I spend 90% of my time working from home so have experienced a fair few attacks on my computers, Spybot has been my saviour on very many occasions however I needed something more permanent and robust, so I got my IT people to search for something that could handle all the traffic I give it. We came up with Kapersky's, and so far (3 months) not a single problem, no pop ups, no viruses? This may not sound very long but I had Norton before which caused untold problems on a very regular basis?

AVG Anti Virus & AVG Anti Spyware is pretty much all you need - both free issue and very good in my experience

I installed Norton and it slowed-down my computer considerably. Despite losing a year's subscription, I uninstalled it and replaced with McAfee Security Suite which is much better. It can be bought off ebay fot £10-15, highly recommended.

I also have AVG (shield off), which I run regularly, and Ad-Aware oftens finds things the other two doesnt. Again Jay, put a few onto your computer and run/scan regularly. Better safe that sorry mate!!! Thumbs Up MY12 SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ebony/Piano/Sidesteps/Privacy/Overfinch Olympus/JLR DRLs

I'm sh*t with computers, but Kaine is right about system restore being a possible quick fix. Have you got a decent anti-virus installed Jay.., that's really essential to prevent nasties getting into your computer in the first place. After that, get plenty of free spyware software from download.com, especially AVG, Ad-Aware and Spybot, and scan regularly. Good Luck Mate!
