Another thought - Windows (XP) firewall is good - but (in my experience) ZoneAlarm is (at least) equally good, and more user-friendly. Whenever a program (or whatever) wants to go to the internet, it will ask for permission - you grant one-time or permanent permission.
Once again, it's a free download (have you noticed I'm tight? ) and it's served me well for years....

Thanks for all your input guys.

The problem was extinguished early afternoon.

I managed to download AVG in safe mode and it did the rest.

I followed Grams advice with CCleaner and the computer seems to run ok with AVG, so big thanks to Gram.

After I sorted the computer out I went to load the bike and trailer for a week in Wales, as soon as I went out the door a big thunderstorm came over.I've only just finished.

Thanks once again
