The biggest favor you can do for Windoze users is 1) Back up their data. 2) Wipe the drive clean (*NOT *just* a FORMAT --FDISK the partition to get any boot sector viruses). 3) Fresh install of Windoze and apps. 4) Having bought an _additional_ hard drive, image the fresh install to that HDD and put it in a closet. When you have problems again, restore the clean image to the problematic system. Installing an OS that isn't easily infected would be an even bigger favor. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
