Thank you so very much Piney,
there is no trace of smitfraud and my pc remains symptom free. Please thank Kimberly also for her help. Your selfless efforts to help those of us with problems is wonderful and much apprieciated. You know the world is spinning upside down when the companies with billions of dollars are unable to help while the most talented people are helping thru places like this.
I have an unrelated question. When I installed norton antivirus 2005 I had a choice of using the norton firewall alone or with the windows firewall. I thought both would be better so I left the windows firewall in place. Reading thru your site I see that was the wrong decision, how do I change it now? Just turn off windows firewall? or is something else needed?
Thanks again
beth
