    Nothing major left to do. If you are both happy with the current performance, nothing more need be done.

    The main bugbears were the Malware infection and the inbox Toolbar.

    It left homepage as INBOX, which I changed back to default, msn.So probably some still there. No probs though, what,s there is clean, just curious what INBOx is, who it belongs to, a toolbar from what, etc.Never come across it before on any pc of mine.

    Update. Just googled inbox.com Thats the one on the comp, same Homepage, so I can only assume my Grandaughter has downloded it, and signed up for some unknown reason, or it,s attached itself as part of another download.My daughter has been online 2 weeks with VM, had their homepage, then inbox homepage become default homepage, strange.Without being sexist, I find all my Wife, Daughter, Grandaughter, will not admit to messing with comp."not me";;:rotfl:Thank goodness for this site:beer:
