Hi Fiona,

Thanks for your perseverance; I have tried what you have suggested but found that having booted into Safe Mode and locating the temporary files folder in

C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\<--DELETE ALL FILES IN FOLDER


In attempting to delete the files present I found I persistently received the error message:

"ACCESS IS DENIED. MAKE SURE THE DISK IS NOT FULL OR WRITE PROTECTED AND THAT THE FILE IS NOT CURRENTLY IN USE"


I could not seem to get round this so have desisted until receiving further advice. Have not tried the Webroot Spysweeper yet as a result.

If you feel the time has come to obtain a new PC -please feel free to so advise!
