JeffMack - we think the virus came in via a games website, got
through Norton firewall/anti-virus etc, but the exact place where
it was acquired is not known as the root can't be traced at this time.
The only protection further to what we had I feel is to ban all
surfing and playing on games websites and possibly PS2 cheat sites.
Youngest son is not happy but feels rotten about it so will abide by
the new rules. Aside of that, it hasn't come in on an attachment,
downloading is already banned and music websites also and
there really isn't any other surfing done, it's all to sites like this
one that is unlikely to be infected.
We've just been unlucky I guess.
OK late lunch is available for anyone who's hungry :>)

Lemon Drizzle Cakes galore were taken from the oven a few minutes ago to cool and then be drizzled.......
Could somebody please put up the 'Welcome Home, Lambykins' poster up? My hands are a bit 'lemony'.

I'll do it now Priscilla - would he appreciate a fresh bowl of
spring greens and spinach if I can get them?

That's a lovely idea, Bunny. I'll wash out his bowl and put a fresh bottle of sancerre in the fridge so he can dine with wine. I hope he has some holiday snaps to make us all envious of his Aussie tan.

Great to see you back, bunny! Welcome home Spaceman and Lambykins - see
Priscilla is pulling out all the stops with lemon drizzle galore.
Just been to dentist, so don't mention roots but a cup of lukewarm
tea would go down a treat!
Thought nothing would get through that Norton, Bunny as it keeps turning
my machine off if there is anything out there :-( Do they give any
guarantees!!!

I know JJ - I'm stunned to be honest, I had great faith in Norton
and now I'm debating whether to shift firewall/virus protection provider
so if anyone's got a favourite let me know.
How's things with you JJ? Is everything dried out? Must be by now
I hope.
JeffMack in the legendary spirit of 'Bread' I'll respond with 'NEXT!'

I'd be surprised if it's Norton that's turning your machine off. It's more likely that it's getting a bit warm and the thermostat is causing it to turn off.
Is it a laptop? Is it next to any other equipment which might be blocking airflow? Have you tried hoovering the vent for the fan to get rid of any dust build-up?

You girls should be good at hoovering, its in the genes

I see JeffMack fancies a sparring match this afternoon.....
so I ask myself Am I in the mood to take on his provocative remarks
made in good humoured banter?
And I've decided Nah...So I'll just reach for my trusty soda syphon
and give him a quick SQUIRT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You too bunny!
Hilary, never thought of that, shall see if I can find a duster and
remember how to use the hoover and give it a go - or then again
I could ask jeffmack for advice on hoovering :-)) It is a laptop
and I have now cleared away all the paperwork from behind it
so shall see if that does the trick - thanks.

Jet Lag got the better of Lambykins and me for a few hours !
Lambykins will be back here soon but at the moment he is eating loads of P's lovely Lemon Drizzle cake.
Thanks for the welcome home messages, wish the weather was a bit better, we have just driven from Sevenoaks to Hastings in pouring rain and in the dark!
Stockbunny, I dont know the details of you PC problems but I can probably help sort them out if they are still not sorted. Let me know if I can help.

Welcome back, Spacey and I'm glad to see Lamby found the jug of extra lemon sauce for his cake. Hopefully he will let Socs have a dribble of sauce too!
