    Safety and Security


    I appear to have a trojan horse virus on a laptop computer which is now disabled. I downloaded Microsoft Safety Scanner version 1 on a clean computer and transferred via a usb drive and ran a full scan which viruses etc had been found and removed, on closing the scanner the problem remained. I ran the scanner again during the scan it showed 10 infected files but when it completed it said no problems and was clean.

    :)

    That made me so facepalm. Some people have absolutely no clue. I hope they don't take you for granted with all this you're doing for them.

    SonicWall is a good security product, so Mindweaver's suggestion sounds like a good one and should make for a rather bigger baby step. Let's hope they take it.
