That would be nice :)

ODL have been struggling all day, Chocopops, so I doubt it's anything to do with Spybot. If you click the Journal tab, you'll probably see a long list of login issues.

Notwithstanding, I think you can disable the S&D Resident wotsit. Right click over the padlock icon and you'll get a dropdown box from where you can fiddle about.

Cheers Hil-tops - I had noticed the journal, but I always blame me first, on account of the fact that it's usually the way :S

I shall get fiddling then ;)

chocolat - 05 Sep 2008 14:37 - 7212 of 11003

Do I want to untick 'use resident in IE sessions'?

Seymour Clearly - 05 Sep 2008 14:40 - 7213 of 11003

Updated my second ODL MT4 platform without issue today - that's using the 'not free' Avast antivirus as my scanning service.

Agree about ODL - really struggling today.

Dil - 05 Sep 2008 15:08 - 7214 of 11003

That sounds like it Choccy , can't check from here I'm at work for a change.

chocolat - 05 Sep 2008 15:20 - 7215 of 11003

Thanks gorgeous.

Anyone any idea how you enable Java with Google Chrome?

Haystack - 06 Sep 2008 11:57 - 7217 of 11003

This is from Google Chrome help. It does work.

"Google Chrome requires Java version 6, update 10. Please note that this is currently a beta version and may be more unstable than some previous version of Java. To download this beta version of Java, visit"

Seymour,

My ODL hasn't live updated to Build 218 yet, but my McAfee scan reported a Gobi virus in my Alpari Build 218.

This link on the Metaquotes website explains more.

ExecLine - 06 Sep 2008 12:24 - 7219 of 11003

Thanks Haystack. Some complicated stuff to read but I did get a result.

You're a Giant! :-)

I'm a customer of the Computer Doctors in Northampton. Most months they send out a link to their online Newsletter. It's in PDF format and you can of course, save the download or even parts of it, if you like.

Here's a link to their September Newsletter: http://www.computerdoctors.uk.net/newsletter/NL0809.pdf

There's a particularly interesting section in the Newsletter about using a Sandbox.

On their main site there is also an Archive of previous Newsletters and quite a good shopper searching link too. I sometimes use this when I'm wanting stuff or ideas but I also do like to use Google's Shopping link too.

Thanks Hil, I had a feeling that would be the case. I'll have to restore the file to its rightful place now!

How do I transfer my norton subscription from my old pc to new pc?

Anyone know?

ExecLine - 07 Sep 2008 15:01 - 7223 of 11003

Quote from a forum on the Internet:

"I had Norton Internet Security 2007 when I went from XP to Vista and had no problem at all. Maybe it is different with NortonAV?

I went online and downloaded the removal tool, ran it and then went back to their web site and downloaded the Vista compatable version. Put in my original key code and it worked fine."

sniffer - 07 Sep 2008 15:16 - 7224 of 11003

Cheers exec will give it a try.

chocolat - 10 Sep 2008 21:19 - 7225 of 11003

Oh I meant to say ... I couldn't untick anything in the Spybot SD resident thingie the other day. So sites are still a bit slow on the upload.

On the other hand, in the last week or two, I know of at least 3 people, including Mr Grumpy, who have had to deal with naughty Trojan attacks, inspite of router firewalls, McAfee, AVG and I can't remember what else.

Anyway, the other thing is, I want another stand-alone jobbie (alongside my 'orrible Vista). Any suggestions please? As in simple?

Kayak - 10 Sep 2008 21:30 - 7226 of 11003

Tell Mr Grumpy not to open emails with attachments, getting plenty of dangerous ones here every day.

chocolat - 10 Sep 2008 21:44 - 7227 of 11003

No it wasn't that - on one of my rare visits to work (as in today) he showed me. It was a simple product search on Google last week, very nasty. The other 2 were friends, one of whom I would imagine was via email, apparently half of UKOnline was affected by the Philippines. He's registered privately now.

Stan - 10 Sep 2008 22:18 - 7228 of 11003

Why people live with all these attacks I really don't know, why don't you just get a Mac and have done with It?
