Yep, your computer's picked up a bug. Take it to the PC doctor. There's loads around. They'll charge you £30 or so to put it right. My cousin'd do it for you, but he's in Brum, unless you want to drop it in to him on your way up to Durham to pick up that engine... ;)


:o :shock: you pay for some sweaty nerd to scan your laptop for viruses...

here to help :ugeek:


No... just that I don't know what James's level of computer knowledge is! So if the whole thing is a pain in the backside to him (and for plenty of people it is) then he could just take it to "some sweaty nerd" and get on with fixing his 2CV while Mr. Computer gets de-loused. End of!


hey i built the pc im currently on ;)

i shoudlnt say this publicly, but i also have a few, dodgy copies of software ;)

i have some stuff to put on his pc to get rid of it dont worry!

Fair play to you, Jameswallace! Maybe you could spec up my next desktop? I need a superfast, super capable machine with loads of memory and loads of multitask capacity for graphics, dtp, photoshopping, web stuff etc. What would I need? I'd build it myself if it's cost effective.

building yourself is the most cost effective way. when i built this one about 4 years ago (gagging for an update but money is tight :( ) it cost about £400 in the end, all in, and at the time it would of cost about 800 from those pc world muppets

Post Re: mods,
Just while James has reminded me. For the last two days when logging in to I2f My anti virus has caught a trojan that attempted to download. It happened again just now when I came here, are you aware of this? Anyone else had it.

The one today was Win32/Spy.Zbot.YW trojan. The one from yesterday was Bredolab.BE trojan downloader. Just thought you guys should know. Anyone without good up to date security might want to run a malware software to see if you have picked one up, as trojans steal passwords and such.

I have it saved at the top of my firefox browser so I just press on the link. I always have, but in the last two days I have got a virus from doing so?
