One of my clients was in America last month. She had her laptop with her........... what a mess. She was getting hundreds of emails a day. Her web favourites nearly melted it was so full.
It has been a major problem for her..

She is a very senior person for a major charity. Some of the stuff was so sick. Got to rethink my internet security

I can heartily recommend Ad-aware, which should solve all your spyware/trojan problems.

Have you done a full system scan with McAffee? Is your McAffee up to date?

Had to call in a favour.... Its a very nasty little virus thing that took a very skilled IT person to find.. I am amazed they could bother with such a virus...Also how easy it could be to dump **** on someones computer....

The guy tells me.. he could Put kiddy **** on someones computer and access it with out the other person knowing.... That is realy bloody scary
