Alfonso,
So does that mean i (well my pc) is clean??
If so THANK YOU. I really appreciate all your help to date and guidance. I have also PM'd you,

Lovely jubbly.

To be honest, your pc was clean from what I could see over a week ago. The problem we had was down to a setting which needed tweeking to put right. We got there in the end, that's the main thing!
Everything appears to be in order so I guess we can wrap things up for the time being.
Just give me a shout if the problems return.
In the meantime, please follow these simple steps to keep yourself safe and secure in the future.

Alfonso,
Quick question. Looked at the website for thelatest download for the java, as it seems that i have a vulnerable version. Lates i could find is
Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6
On Virus vault it says look for Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 10 .
I cannot find this.
Any clarification welcome.
