Subject: RE: Tech: spyware-etc..how it happens -what to do
I have IT friends at work who have software like that, and simply tell the computer to "go back" to a time prior to when it was installed and can use it again.

I'm sure you can lose a lot of other stuff this way if you don't back up stuff and replace it after that maneuver.

I have been tweaking the security settings. In the middle of that this morning my DSL modem crashed. I had to turn everything off and turn it back on again. For some time now my IE hasn't been able to open the web page for access to the web version of my email. Netscape has no such problems. It must be the settings I've been toying with. I even trying restoring the IE default and it still doesn't open. Looks like I'll be reading my web mail via Netscape.
