    One of the pesky little red boxes popped up and I saw it had filesbunker.com at the bottom. I googled it and there was an article about getting rid of it. It said it is a virus which slips in on the back of innocent downloads.

    Here's another site regarding filesbunker, Remove Filesbunker.com pop-up virus (Removal Guide)
    But can I trust the tip that appears beneath my last posting? I am getting suspicious of every offer!

    I don't know how to do any of this stuff, Thrash even with the instructions. I am a writer of 70 and completely dumb with computers. I did uninstall a suspicious looking prog from my control panel but am sure that will not be enough

    Yo Thrash

    The cheeky bloody internet download malware even tried to do its stuff while I was downloading your fix! You fix whizzed through and then found something called something bull(?) and did its stuff and gave me a report of actions. So far no repetition. Your are a star mate. How can I reward you?

    Post the scan results would be a good start Mate
    Open the text file created by Adwcleaner,
    Right click the body of it and click on Select All,
    Right click again and click on Copy,
    Open a new message here type here ya go,
    Right click under that and click on Paste.

    Exactly as you said, the text box opened and gave a list of stuff found and done, but I cannot find any ref to it on my desktop. Under As I just have a dozen Acer things and then two Adobe things. There is no reference at all to adwcleaner. Have I lost it?
