    just to confirm that you did the reboot at the end to remove the extra ones ??

    download and run this

    www.ccleaner.com

    and install it , unticking the box to install Yahoo Toolbar , and then run it to remove all your junk Temp files

    Don't forget, once you have opened the program's interface, you should go to Options > Advanced and then remove the tick from Only Delete Files In Windows Temp Folders Older Than 48 Hours.

    You can replace the tick if you wish after running the initial clean up.

    Aimed at the OP of course.
  • I'm glad you got your PC sorted hibsdibs, and thanks to browntoa for the links to CCleaner and the malware remover, I've downloaded and installed them both, should mean my PC's better protected and will run faster!:beer:
    Total debt as at Jul 2012: Too much!
  • Yes I rebooted at the end to remove the extra ones and I've just run CC Cleaner and now everything is back to normal, if not better!

    Thanks again!
  • Oh and I've run Windows update too.
    Thanks again and cheers to Donnie and DwainDibley too
