Re: confused to problem- can anyone help??

Do you have antivirus software on your PC - if so what and is it current and the PC recently scanned?

Do you have antispyware on your PC - if so what and is it current and the PC recently scanned?

How are you connecting, ethernet or USB (the former is more reliable)?
