Your logs look pretty good, have all the problems gone? You should update your Java as old versions can be exploited.
yes problems seem to have disappeared and all seems to be working better, still get pop up ads on yahoo but guess that's to be expected.. :pullhair: will update java, many thanks for your help :D all the best fiona
Using Firefox?

If so, give AdBlockPlus (extension) a go if you haven't already. Fantastic ad-blocking extension in my opinion, I very rarely see any ads in Firefox.

You can also have Firefox stop popups with Tools >> Options >> Content and check Block Popups.

Cheers.
