HMMM! desipte a firewall, AV Anti Spyware etc, somebody managed to get something thru and change my DNS settings. Redirected all *.co.uk domains to jupk.com. All settings have now been changed to manual and passworded. Just a little warning!

Saw several instances of this with a customer recently. Corrected it by clearing the hosts file and resetting the network connection properties. See here for more details.

He's fixed it (after a tantrum , and i'm supposed to be the kid ) didn't take him very long either,comes in handy having an I.T Technician as a dad

Yep that's the site that gave me the clue's. Of course what have you been downloading???

This did cross my mind. You don't tend to get trojans like that surfing innocent sites. Has NYL been a bit naughty?

Use Mozilla Firefox with the no script plug in.

Also you can propagate you're HOSTS FILE and keep the nasties away.

thats what i'm thinking (not trying to shift the blame obviously )

If I could get on the Computer more Often

We are on Firefox(haven't you noticed NYL's spelling's improved), As for Hosts, I've decided that fixing the DNS servers on the router and changing it's password should be more effective. Don't forget that Hosts is a file that can be "got at".
