    If you don't have any important info on the PC, would you consider running a clean install? Where is your Internet security solution?

    Make and model number of your PC?

    That makes it a little more complicated. Not for me, but for you. You didn't reply as to whether you would consider it.

    Maybe you can tell me something about the history of this machine or create a link to the previous thread. Does it have a Microsoft CoA sticker anywhere?

    Oh, no thats not what I meant!

    My OH took the RAM out of the computer without grounding himself to find out what size RAM we had in! :)

    What would we do regards OS? I haven't got a disc for it so we wouldn't have a OS on the computer would we?

    Should I ask the same question for a third time? Perhaps you can go back and try to answer my questions. :)

    Yup, tried cleaning the cache. It's the same when I try to browse in IE as well *confused*

    Didn't know about the firefox profile though

    Clean install of what? Firefox?

    Internet security is none existant, hasn't had any since we "adopted" it
