Problem fixed now. The odd thing is I ran malwarebytes on Monday and it found
zilch, however ran it again last night and it said it was eight days out of date

,
but its sorted now. Have to say I have no confidence in this firewall whatsoever. I hear most people think Norton is the top anti virus checker etc but I remember I got a trojan horse from one of the broad sheet sport pages a while back. So which anti virus is preferred by ppruners?
