Hi Richard, yes it is possible. In Feb AVG detected the JS/Psyme virus (2 variations)
and a dialler. Norton didnt detect these, and it was at the suggestion of a friend
when i mentioned my computer going nuts, that i ran AVG. This is why i had the 2 avs.
I have no idea if this caused any damage. It is in AVGs virus vault. i dont know if
that means it has fixed any problem caused or what. I tried to find ifo
about it but there doesnt seem to be much.

I thought the windows closing had started about the time i installed sunjava, but this
was about
the same time as the virus (maybe a little bit later). The windows are closing when you click a link
(sometimes-and also blank windows open often rather than the one you want) and mostly when you
close on window, it closes the lot. It is definately getting worse. I didnt know if this was just
something that happens sometimes
or if it is something thats fixable.

I am still havin the malicious script notice when i try to access my computer (or my docs or or pics)
from the start menu...it says its a file system object--activity -open text file, file - explorer.exe.
This has only recently started happening, though i have had the warning before, but very occasionally on
open internet windows. Now it is also occuring when i open web pages grrrrrrrr.

Thanks heaps for your interest. It is so frustrating when you have no idea if something is a problem
or just a part of the whole deal.
