    THIS LINK will give you removal instructions. And read the very top sticky on the Techie stuff forum. This will give yiou an idea of what to use to ensure that you protect your PC from all manner of nasties.
    I haven't been asked to tell you that I'm the [highlight]Board Drunk[/highlight] for this board. As the night wears on, my posts will become worse, with simple spelling mistakes, inane ramblings, and a blatant disregard for the truth. I have no authority to do anything, so there's no point asking or telling me. If you see me past midnight, please tell me to get my coat and order me a taxi.
