Hi Elizabeth,
Could you please send me the Hijacklog at this address:
to_you_ross at yahoo.dot.co.dot.uk, replace the obvious to e-mail me (not
the underscore ( _ ) not (-) between to_you_ross.
Also could you include these info:
1- what operating system you are using, is XP Home or Pro?.
2- What version of Office you have install now on this machine?.
3- Your Connection to the Internet?.
4- When this happened, and did you install any software or copied old files
to your Outlook or received e-mail with attachment?.
5- Games installed on your Machine and other extra software.
Please try to use web based E-mail address not your Outlook/Express or other
Client to e-mail me, like Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail...etc.

HTH.
