thanks ssc, for the note on here, i had put it in the shop, when my spyware got so bad it seemed i got the last straw at photobucket, i guess, i was looking at easter pics for a sig, and found a funny one, when i clicked it the whole page highlighted up, and my pc locked up, so all i could do was turn it off, i did not come right back i did a few things, when i came back i had 3 screens on my desktop about spyware, they were there from spyware, .. anyway, i unplugged it from the internet when the port scanner place i use after a scan said i may be being used as a server, and all info open to anyone on the internet, so i disconnected it from the internet, and took it to a pc shop here that has been here for 10 years,cleaned it, and he changed what i am using .. he said it was loaded with spyware, but he has had some worse, he said some has had over a thousand lol, anyway im tired,, but thanks, i still have lots or work, he did put mozilla firefox on as i think tyler uses, he said he got a letter from homland security advising him internet ex, had flaws, but firefox may not let me on some sights i have been on , and aleady one place i download from .. it has stoped me, only because of my setting, i have downloaded there for years, the same program , but they update programs every few weeks, welll thanks im tired, lol,

Welcome back rosco, the best advice I can give is to try and stay on Firefox and don't use IE if at all possible, and download those spyware programs I sent you.
Glad your back!
