Yes Jo, I have. To be honest I am a bit scared of downloading anything else.

Thank you Michael, I am a bit wary of downloading anything that may not be "safe". I will feed my family and then have a look at what you suggest. Thanks.

Michael, I have just had look at the site and I don't think I can manage that, but thanks for replying.

I put AVG on my laptop on Sunday and have used it each day. Spywarebot shows up when I run Spybot but is not removed. Thanks for your reply.
