Hope there isn't anything left, oh and under my internet options in Internet Explorer there is still a "Use Blank" button for my homepage. If clicked on it sets about:blank as my homepage. I uninstalled and reinstalled Internet Explorer but seem to have the same button there.

Don't open e-mail attachments without first scanning them with an up-to-date
anti virus program, even after doing that I would be very careful. Don't click on any executables in e-mails or any other links that you're not sure of.
Watch your surfing habits, don't click on or download anything you're not sure of. Don't install a program that hasn't been recommended by a reputable organization.

Good luck and thanks for using the forum - MrC
