Hello tech team/other users,

Warning, new fish!!!

Hello everyone, I am a 3rd year occupational therapy student trying to write my dissertation. I am not so competant with computers but i think i can do most of the basic stuff. For example i managed to set my tabs up for 3 diff sites i use regulaly (ok, i found out by pure chance, but i know how to do it now!!).

In december i bought a packard bell ixtremem2106 (pent 4,1gig, 400 hard drive) i bought this (monster to me) in order to be able to recoed, edit and produce music from my dj decks (of which i am a beginner also). As well as for computing for my uni degree.

I do alot of internet searching and have started using limewire (mistake or not, i dont really know yet!) as well as cd recording and word processing.

Recently, by chance (again!) i came across a trojan horse -

79662E04-7C6C-4d9f-84C7-88D8A56B10AA. I have been looking at how to get rid of it but everything i have seen on the web looks very technical.

Can you guys please help me out? It is eating away at my memory an slowing everything right down.

Many thanks for your time

Paul Perrett
