Thanks Browntoa - obviously Rik's too busy eating Easter eggs.

If I fix all those trusted websites, will that cause any future problems, the only one's I visit are google and BBC (one of them's even my work's website ***shudders*** ).
Bit concerned that the virus seemed to be in my sent emails folder.
I guess it's a good idea to do regular scans with Avira, will it find things that it originally lets through?0 -
Is this O.K?
O14 - IERESET.INF: START_PAGE_URL=xxxxxxxxxxxMove along, nothing to see.0 -
That's my work's website details - this is a home pc - the last hard disc I had in here was put in by a friend at work, when the original one developed a fault, I have since put a new one in but just transferred everything on to it - that must be a left-over from that.Is this O.K?
Is it ok to fix?0 -
Avira does not scan emails in the free version , you would need to swap to Avast to get that facilty
that 014 entry is not a problem , if you use the option to reset the homepage to default then thats the page it would reset to , up to you if you delete it , will cause no problems either way , same with the 015 entriesEx forum ambassador

it may be a "false Positive" rather than a real infection , I've had AVG insist a program thats been on my PC for years was a Trojan the other weekEx forum ambassador

Now edited post, 014 can be an indication of a web settings hijack if it's not been set by you.Move along, nothing to see.0
