| Thanks for your reply, Guy. I've got the message!

| Interesting CV, btw. FYI, there's a 'typo' in the second paragraph:
"
| HARDWARE DESIGN; **Mt** engineering experience ..... "

| You say "have also made it my business to be an expert on viruses,
| malware and antispam measures". A friend of mine thinks he might
have a
| Rootkit and both he and I have played around with HiJackThis on his
| computer (without really knowing what we're doing!). We knows there
are
| lots of 'help' sites on-line but as I'm here I thought I'd ask if
you
| have a favourite forum you could recommend. Thanks.

| I'd hoped that Guy would respond, but thanks anyway.

| I went to that site and explored a bit.

| If I scroll down, towards the bottom of the page, on the RHS, is a 'box'
| marked 'Backups'.

| In the second paragraph it says "We are working with .... (link)
| Backupanswers.com That link takes *me* to a page saying HTTP Error
| 404 - File or directory not found. A dead link?

| Where does it take you? (I'd appreciate an answer!)

| I also noticed that when I hover over that link, at the bottom of my
| screen I see this:-

| http://regnow.com/softsell/visitor.cgi?affiliate = 37989&...

| A little below that is another 'box' entitled WinBackup. If I click in
| that box I'm taken here:
| http://www.liutilities.com/products/campaigns/affiliate/general/rb/

| ........ to:- Uniblue Registry Booster offering a "Free System Scan".

| I didn't press the large green "Instant Scan" button!

| What does that have to do with 'WinBackup'?

| Hovering over the WinBackup 'box' I see this:

| http://regnow.com/softsell/visitor.cgi?affiliate = 37989&action... (note
| extra word - action!)

| If I go directly to http://www.liutilities.com/products/freescans/ a
| range of free scans is available, but nowhere do I see the exact same
| page as in the link above. I'm now wondering if it is a spoof site.

| You will appreciate that I can only tell you what I can see here on my
| machine(s). Perhaps you too will explore these pages and tell me what
| you find. I do understand that it might be my computers which have a
| problem.

| I also noticed that when I hover over that link, at the bottom of my
| screen I see this:-

| http://regnow.com/softsell/visitor.cgi?affiliate = 37989&...

| Something doesn't seem quite right. Could it be my computers at fault or
| can anyone else here see the same things?

| Thanks

| John

The objective is to register and create a thread.

Have you done that or not ?
