I think just visiting certain webpages can do it , but i think you may have to download something from the page to get it into your system but im not sure if you can get then by just clicking something simple like "CLICK HERE TO MAKE THIS YOUR HOMEPAGE ECT" but someone else here might know alittle more about how easy or hard it is to avoid getting it on your system

Thats great, thank you, I'll pass those on. She had a keylogger before, and it seemed to go so we're not sure if this is the same one or not. How do they get on the PC in the first place?

harley: I would use some software to get rid of this as soon as possible because who ever wrote it could be collecting personal details such as passwords and bank details ,some web pages have these keyloggers built into the webpage , so all antivirus ect should be kept upto date , but there are estimated one-to-two new variants and 10 to 15 websites per week which makes it hard to be 100 percent safe i think.

Hi Harley,the best bet for her to know would be to run the computer in safe mode,install microsoft anti-spyware combined with Norton,it not only will eliminate it but as well,give you the computer #s and ips codes.

In my eyes it sounds like the browsers been hijacked,if you type a comma and you see and extra space then you'll know for sure,if she's using the Telephone as the provider to the internet,she should always automatically close all windows or log of before answering,that's there new way of getting at the system,the old email attachments is another,but these Worms and viruses are expanding as well as getting alot more advanced.

Hope i made some sense and have helped someway.

Every time my mum runs her ad aware programme she gets 'keylogger - threat - severe'.
What is this and how can she get rid of it? The programme isn't doing it.

LOL, Harley ... I think it failed to write straight to a disc from Premier Pro because you need to be a registered user!!!!!!!!!!!!! ooops, now I have spilled the beans! So have to write to hard drive and then burn to DVD. It's a very slow process though ... I'm using a Jack Rabbit burner and the fifteen minute piece I just finished is taking an hour to burn. But once the first one is done, I can copy it in around five minutes. It really is time for a new computer with more power, a built in DVD writer and a HUGE hard disc.

I still can't figure out why the rendering file is 3gb and the burn disc is 0.5gb.

I bought an external for my old PC, but I have a new one now so I have one internal and one external! They come in handy.

This might sound like a daft question, but you are using a DVD disc and not a CD disc? Thats something I struggled with at first, trying to make VCD's instead of DVD's!
And does it make a difference if you use Nero instead of Premier Pro? Sometimes just using a different programme can help.
Otherwise, you could try splitting the file instead of cutting it, then you won't lose any. I have usea 'Easy Video Splitter' in the past and its great. Very easy to use.

harley: Do you have an option to 'write at once', or something similar? So it doesn't use any space on your hard drive?

Hi Harley. I've tried to do that .... but it hasn't worked. I blundered yesterday .... I had trimmed the video to 15 minutes from 60 mins but had left one file ... which made it think it was still 60 mins. That will teach me to work on wine ;-) But it still doesn't solve the issue. When rendering, it seems to think that a 1gb file is 10gb (or something like that). Weird.

Incidentally, I bough an external hard drive - the Iomega plug and play - it is small enough to carry in my back pocket! Amazing. But it runs on USB2 and I only have USB 1.1 ... so it is slowwwwwwwwwww.

Time for a new computer???

Thanks ... i fell foul of that earlier. On Nero Suite you have to make sure you click on DVD. But my problem is the rendering ... which goes first to the hard drive before burning.

Worth asking though - thanks a lot!

I'm trying to render and burn a DVD from Premier Pro - the file is probably no larger than 1gb ... but it keeps telling me that there is no more room on the 'disc'. I checked the hard drive that I am burning to and it has 20gb of empty space. It's driving me crazy! any one in the know here who can advise?

danoschek, I'm not sure...You don't like Microsoft?

I don't either. However, I have learned that when I use Microsoft products, I have less problems with my computer. Not that Microsoft products are better. I, personally, think that Microsoft intentioanlly designs their products to be incompatible with other software. Then when you mix Microsoft with non-Microsoft you get problem.

In 2000, the classically-minded among us may have noted a TV ad
for Microsoft's IE e-mail program, which uses the musical theme of the
"Confutatis Maledictis" from Mozart's "Requiem."
"Where do you want to go today ?" is the cheery line on the screen.
Later, the chorus sings "Confutatis maledictis, flammis acribus addictis,"
which translates: "The damned and accursed are convicted to flames of hell." ...
Seems even Gates of chAos and his MS con-sorts are having a clue sometimes ... . ~*~

Danoschek is right, it is recommended to disable windows system restoration to be able to repair system after infecting.
There are also many other steps that must be done to be protected from viruses, spyware etc.
Simply things are recommended: use antivirus and firewall and don´t browse on "dangerous" sites.
Also I would recommand (very suitable) to disable this services on windows which only makes your system more vulnerable and occupy tons of MBs in your RAM and I guess you´ll never use this serveces in real life (cmd-services.msc)
-automatical configuration WiFi (if you are not -using wifi conectivity of course)
-ICF (firewall in Windows ´cause I guess you are using better one )
-Indexing Service
-NetBIOS (port 135) over TCP/IP
-NetMeeting
-nvidia driver helper service
-protocol SSDP
-sever (if you don´t have your own private network)
-telnet
-terminal services
-web client


and others can be found. (see blackviper).
Certainly disable automaticaly windows updates - only when notified you´ll download them.
And don´t use Exploer but some better alternatives such as Firefor or Opera, and Mozilla Thunderbird instead of Outlook.
Sometimes it is good to scan system with ad-ware or Spybot-Search&Destroy.

Or use LINUX.

if defective system files have to be repaired after a virus scan or, for replacing them

volant: maybe problem is between keyboard and chair.... I´m joking...sometimes the reason why this or that have happened to Windows are...hmmmm....let´s say inexplicable . Really this should be happened by any other applications you have installed into your computer or this might be indication that your computer have been infected by some spyware,adware,virus or something like that from net.
I have some experiences with system restioration too, and after 2 or 3 months it didn´t work good as you wrote.I think this is not good way to backup your system. Maybe you can try NortonGhost or other applications that are hundred times better and works very good. It is a shareware but I am sure that there can be found any other freeware programs that will be able to satisfy your needs.
Try google it.

Was looking around in my puter and found that system restore is disabled. No idea how, why or when this happened. Does anyone know a reason why I shouldn't turn back on system restore?

*edited to add*
I have a couple system restore points that I have set myself. Last week I tried to use system restore to fix my puter by using one of these points. It told me that it could not restore my puter to this point. Does anyone know a reason it would refuse to restore my puter.

You probably know that a program called Microsoft AntiSpyware is
currently being given away by the Redmond company in a public beta program.

What you may not know is that the program started out being co-developed
by another software company — which happens to own the rights to
Microsoft's spyware database for the better part of the next three years.

That's an interesting tale, and the telling of it may
give your company a look into the future of all such software.

Good Fences Make Good Developers

Stu Sjouwerman is the founder and COO of Sunbelt Software, the maker of
IHateSpam, Directory Inspector, and many other programs for PCs. Sunbelt
is also the publisher of CounterSpy, an anti-adware program based on much
of the same code as Microsoft AntiSpyware.

You might wish to read how Sjouwerman explains it:

<1. I use Microsoft Antispyware. It gives no comment whatsoever about this site.

2. Images at this site are generally in the \images\ folder of the same server. There may be confusion with ItsYourTurn.com where images and scripts are generally loaded from j.iyt.net. Nevertheless, loading IMAGES from a different server is not considered unsafe. It is true that IE has respective setting, however, it must be turn on by hand; no highest security level has it on by default, and a very few contemporary sites would pass it.

3. Security alerts are triggered by redirection of some specific things, like form submission, or mixing secure and non-secure items. These are not used here.

4. Albeit ItsYourTurn may work faster for those who are in over 20 hops from uff.cz, "pages" are much more complicated there, by default loading a page for a non-member includes execution scripts from a number of servers including such notorious as MidAddle, TribalFusion, etc. Both BrainKing and ItsYourTurn mandate acceptance of first-party cookies, however, if you accept also third-party ones, they are "identified" by Ad-Aware as "data miners". In IE resolve this issue in Privacy->Advanced.

Some extensions I use:

ForecastFox - Pretty cool, I have the current weather, and the forcast for the next few days on the bottom bar of the browser, out of the way - but handy for a quick forcast.

BugMeNot - Some websites make you create a login & password just to view something on their site - something which you may only want to spend 5 minutes looking at and never come back. BugMeNot will search through it's records and fill in the userID & Password for sites like this if it has it so you don't have to.

StumbleUpon - If you are bored, this is pretty cool - find random internet sites - rated by other stumbleupon users.

I also have DictionarySearch & Translate - but never really used it other then loading them.

There is no spyware. And don't use IE.

This site should be clean & safe. I think (guessing - Fencer would know for sure) - I think that the pictures on this site is actually hosted on a different "server" then where the pages are loaded from - and I think if a browser is set at the highest security, it will view a site that gets pictures from a second site as a security risk. (That way some scam artist does not pretend it is PayPal.) Again, I'm guessing here.

What exactly are the messages / security warning you are getting?
