Thanks for the advice. My computer seems to be running ok, so I guess I'm alright. I really don't feel confident enough to do the full clean up, knowing my luck I'll end up having to take it to the professionals if I start moving stuff onto disk, etc, and I daren't risk a big bill at the mo as we're skint, lol!
I spoke to First Direct about it this morn, before I logged on here, and their advice was if I've run anti virus software and nothing's coming up, then there's nothing to worry about. They didn't ask me which software I have, etc..I asked what would happen if there was a trojan and money was taken out, the guy said I would think you'd be covered. When I asked him to check it foir sure, I was told that it had never happened, but I would be ok as long as I'd not given out my security details. But is it the equivalent of giving out your security details if you have a virus on your pc, as someone is effectively looking over your shoulder?
Anyway. I'll take his word for it....thanks again everyone,. I really do appreciate your help!

Go for one of these:
Steganos/Kaspersky - two almost identical progs - steganos is the cheaper
NOD32
Good luck and let us know how you get on
all the best

:eek: Have also just found out that my McAfee subscription ran out 10.06!!! So will be taking your advice asap and looking at the Steganos one you mentioned. Thanks ! Would just the full 2007 internet security suite cover everything I need would you say? I don't really want to slow up my pc by having too much no here but at the same time I want to make sure I'm covered..0
