Might I reccomend a little IT support firm that could rid you of these 
troubles? Feel free to contact their 3a IT's sales manager, Paul Backshall, 
on 0870 881 5097 :)

Seriously though, anyone running windows should have an up to date virus 
scanner, and a firewall. Having had to deal with a windows XP machine that 
was totally unpatched, plugged into a BTopenwoe connection, and completely 
compromised (253 infected files, about 8 unique virii, incl. 
trojan's/backdoors) I can say it's not fun :(

P.S Apologies for the less-than-subtle plug for mah company.... i'm sure 
there's something in the LUG rules about it.. but I...er...can't read... yes 
that sounds like a good excuse ;)
