Hi all,
I am on a caravan forum and what the owner doesnt know about computers - well you could put on a postage stamp anyway the following happened today and i have used the link he gives and i found 14 'threats' to my computer! They are now gone and the link is free - so i would urge you all to do it - mine took 10 minutes. Bev

The problems we have now is malware. For people that do not know.

Spyware (Slows the computer down mainly an irritation)
viruses (cause loads of grief, deletes files, slows down machines bit of a pain)

Malware (dangerous it is looking for your credit card details, user name and passwords) this is probably how they got this persons user and pass.

If you are running windows get this program the basic version is free, we ran it at work last week most machines were clean 1 had 9 malware on it, cleaned them and they are now gone.

good luck
