Leave them in quarantine for now, while you run the pc for a few days to check all is good. After that, I'd go back and delete them
Interestingly (and suprisingly
) they are all mcafee quarantine locations - never thought mcafe would find anything to quarantine in the first place :rotfl:

Yes i was quite surprised to see that Mcafee had managed to 'catch' anything too! :eek:
Am going to leave my computer as it is for a few days (as had enough of it now!) and then uninstall Mcafee and get some good internet security.
Thanks again for all your help :T:T0 -
