I don’t know if this would help but if it’s only recently you’ve been having this problem, how about trying a system restore. Go back to a known date before your had these troubles.

Dont do it yet, check with Ian first.

For effective security under Windows you need ALL the following

1) Firewall - I normally install the basic Zone Alarm and its fine
2) Anti Virus - AVG Free edition although people do tend to have favourites so feel free to choose another.
3) Spyware/Malware - you can't get an all in one solution for this, You need a min of 2 programs, 3 is better, Try Ad-aware, Spybot and Microsofts free one

4) The most important one!!! A brain - Don't open anything that you aren't 150% sure of. Don't install stuff that promises to make you rich, bigger, sexier or anything else beyond the realms of credibility.


One point of note - I along with lots of my techie friends absolutely hate with a vengence Norton products. They are resource hungry - tightly locked into teh core OS bloatware going. I'm sure there are loads of people who love it, teh techies tend not to be in that camp.

well tried it and...............










































NOTHING
still the bloody same looks like im gonna have to restore or format the sodin thing!!!!!!!!!!!!

[entwisi]

tried what???

If you want techie help you have to tell us 'exactly' what you've done and what is happening, you need to avoid woolly descripitions so we have a chance of working out whats happening on your screens. (Remember we can't see it!!!!)

If you close off AccyWeb and then look at processes does it still show the browser you use as taking up some of your CPU percentage?
