I have got up to date Norton on my system and regularly
check my definitions. I also tried the RAV site and have
looked for Trojans accessing my ports.

I have found nothing. As I said I can see the file icons
and there is no data...

Still no progress but thanks for the RAV site. If you can
think of anything else I would be very appreciative

Regards
