[QUOTE="phil baber, post: 1749199, member: 71208"] Just beware of "Control Center". It's a spy/ mal run by Windows to see if your copy is legal. But also to frighten you into buying their products. It will tell you that you've been visiting dodgy sites and that you have been infected with many viruses/trojans. This caught me out. I thought it was part of Windows and clicked it. Then, I couldn't get back into my pc. Google "Contol Center" and be aware! You can delete it through add/remove programs. That was my answer! Although some of its nastiness may remain in the Registry. The Internet will help you on a search.. Just be aware of CC! No birds on this thread! [/QUOTE]
