I regularly use the free Malwarebytes anti virus software. Adwcleaner will generally clean adware type problems. Do you have a firewall running. I use Comodo firewall software and is also free.

Problems seem to have been resolved,by process of elimination it was i think the USB hub causing problems,why i dont have a clue,but have the mouse and wireless keyboard all working again and it performing exactly as it should do.

Will get a new USB hub tomorrow and connect everything thing back up again,well pleased that the problem has finally been located.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions and i guess Hils :o)

Mega - leave the porn sites alone! :-)

I remember this post on ADVFN years ago.

Wife: why are you on the computer all the time?
Husband: I am looking at porn sites
Wife: Don't lie to me. You have been on ADVFN again.

Does anyone know if it is possible to watch sky over Wifi on a Samsung smart TV?

I've noticed that in the last few days my Monitor screen has started flicker slightly to about a third of the way down, does that mean the tube is on it's way out? It's a 21in square Cornerstone box and I really like it so I don't really want to have to get a new wide screen thing.

Stan Monitors are notoriously sensitive to magnetic fields. Nothing close by ?
ie a fan or phone.

I have recently put a Digital portable radio next to it, could that possibly be it DC?

Just switched the radio power off.. and yes no flicker so thank you super DC -):

Throw it out the window and see what happens Stan. :-))

Simple things sometimes Stan. lol Hope your keeping well, nice to see you back. :-))

Nice to be back DC thank you.

His back is his best attribute! :-)

Yeah but don't tell everyone -):

I have just installed Trusteer Rapport on a friends computer, but a number of options were presented to me on Google search page 1. The IBM website installed Rapport without asking any questions. A number of other sites for download asked to select a specific Bank name before continuing! As Rapport works for all sites requiring a password / login, it just seems a bit strange to be asked for any bank details.

It is really for business banking security. It has been around since at least 2008. Why did he want it installed?

To protect login details for on-line banking and also share trading. It's still recommended software by all the main UK banks and share trading companies and it is updated on a regular basis, even compatible with Windows10.

Since Rapport is a Free download, there will be different download sites for it,so do be careful ticking (or unticking) any of the accompanying boxes to avoid getting any unwanted additional software/add-ons/extensions/tool bars.

eg. ASK Search, Yahoo Search, change of Home Page, change of Default browser - that kind of stuff.

I've never heard of Rapport.

Harry when you say that "It's still recommended software by all the main UK banks and share trading companies and it is updated on a regular basis," Barclays who I use for share trading have never recommended any one to me, Is that because one specifically needs to ask?

Stan,

Try your banks.

I downloaded from a "bank" site using their security.

Use it on various site and Barclays.

Generally appear with a green "icon" before the web site.

Seems OK, used it for "yonks".

E-mail me if you and I will give you more info. if you want it!
