Seems fine, but then it wasn't apparent that there was a problem before, except for the wierd emails being sent. Do you think it's fixed? What do you advise in the future to prevent this from happening again? Wil I need to buy and run several different malware and virus detection programs? thanks. Jo

Looks good :D :thumbup:

If you dont have these three programs I would recommend that you get them. Spywareblaster, Spywareguard and IESPY AD. They will add 1000's of sites to your resticted zone and block some hijacks from happening. In my signature below is also a tutorial on how to harden IE, a good read and very helpful to stop these things in the future. I also have a FREE FIREWALL and FREE ANTI VIRUS if you need one.

It is critical to have both a firewall and anti virus to protect your system.

Keep your system up to date and run Adaware & Spybot, once a week works, and hopefully you will be ok from here on.

Safe Surfing. :D
