Hi Bob.
I'm using Windows 98.
I've also now downloaded a firewall (basic version of ZoneAlarm) and Spybot, and am therefore hoping that I'll be better defended in the future against the gremlins.
I've recently started playing the casinos online which is where I suspect a lot of the viruses came from.
Thanks for your advice

Since you've been cruising the internet without a firewall, I'd defenitly follow
Eddy's advice and get install and run HijackThis and his Excellent HJT FileAnalyzer.
More help on his website and you'll also find some help on its use in the HelpfulShortcuts
link in my signature.

Please read VLK notice in "Avast! home/Pro" for ZA users ;)

As recommended, I've downloaded and run HijackThis and got a log file.
Since you've all been so helpful so far, can I post the log file to this board for your comments, or should I go elsewhere for advice on what to do with the HijackThis results?

ps I've read VLK's comments re ZA, Niko, but have got version 4.5 of avast!, so no conflict there, but a good reason not to download the upgraded version until they've fixed it.  Thanks for the tip, quand-meme.
