My Mum got caught by one of these type of scammers. He phoned up saying she'd been having trouble with her internet (which she had) and talked her through enabling remote access. He then installed a program on her machine.

She then sudddenly panicked, uninstalled the program, and ran a full scan with Norton. Is there anything else you guys would recommend she do, short of chucking out the PC?
