    So as I said in my post #49;- "Ahh, should I "scan for issues"? then will it ask to back up?"

    Will try again

    OK, all done now, will see over the next few days if computer is any faster.

    Many thanks for your time and efforts:beer:

    Just a couple more little points;-

    Do I get rid of all the downloads from your links, Gary Utilities, HiJack this etc?

    What happens to the saved file from CC which is at the moment sitting on my desktop, can I delete it?

    Having got rid of ADAWARE, is it recommended to use malwarebytes in it's palce as well as my other securities?

    Teh saved file are your registries. Put them somewhere safe

    You can remove anything you like, but id recommend keeping malwarebytes

    One more, despite me going to MS via your link earlier, and doing a manual update then reboot, it appears that I am still on IE6, do you have a link to get IE9, or should I just Google it?

    Save them where? on a CD, or somewhere on the PC?

    Where would they have been previously? and would I have been able to find them?

    Just keep them on the hardrive somewhere
    Theyre simply the registries youve removed
