Thanks. That is a wonderful option. What is your friend's name so I can give it to her and how other than email can she reach them to schedule? Sounds like they are taking on CMIT.

A buddy of mine here in Austin is starting up a new tech support service that's made for this demographic and this type of problem. Their tagline is "If you didn't grow up using a computer - we're here to help!"

Jan, the pilot program is free, so if your friend is still having trouble this could be a solution.

Jan, have her go to http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ and run a free online virus scan. You might need to walk her through downloading the small helper file (to a location she can remember) and then starting the scan. Depending on the type of infection, HouseCall will either fix or quarantine the file.

I think McAffee also has a free online scan, but I've never used or recommended them to anyone.
