    Thanks guys. If you read my post it clearly states " Ill wait and post in the appropriate area!" LOL I just can't! I'm still blocked or limited or whatever access to post in that area or I would complete the section. Maybe I can help with issues too, just not gonna be much on computer stuff! LOL

    Appreciate the welcome, as soon as I can post I will. I'm blocked still. Steve

    Hi

    Are you trying to post in someone elses thread? or is this a new thread of your own?

    If someone elses thread you cannot post in it, in the malware forum area (other areas are ok) as its best as you will agree to have dedicated help and no distractions from others issues as it can confuse the user with a fix that may not be for them but the other user.

    If its a new thread you created then did you follow the Read and Run me guide and attach the requested logs? as inline logs posted in the body of the post will end up moderated as we prefer them attached.

    An over use of ....... or !!!!!! or multiple smilies may also send your post/thread to moderation, so try and refrain from using especially.... between.... your text.... in..... a...... paragraph.

    Also if attaching or clicking any of the links to downloads in the malware forum especially, when logging in click the "remember me" box.

    Yes I read the Read and Run Me section. Of course it was after I tries to post and made a statement here!

    I'm on Blackberry now so when I get back in I will post what's going on. From the Worm.win32.NetSky topic from someone else I see trouble! LOL

    Thanks again you all are rite on top of it so far. Thanks Steve

    Since it is sensitive material involved I just took it to the Shop. I don't want to take a chance and do something wrong or miss a step and lose material which could have been avoided or saved. Ill be back when its finished to upload some security, The reason it wasn't secure is "the peachtree program wouldn't load while software was activated for protection" Just add it as safe and it qill open but you can't explain technology to cavemen! LOL

    Ill be back later, just too important for me to figure out, something in Bios Probably.

    Re: New member/ PROBLEM FIXED

    I was contacted today and told that the files are backed up, the problem is corruption of the Microsoft Windows and even though the files are saved the hard drive, which is good, will need to wiped and Windows reinstalled meaning losing the programs associated.... only 2 so Im glad to hear this news also.

    Installed new Windows and AVG Pro. Maybe the Secretary will understand the Anti Virus can be told which programs are good so it will not ever be shut off again!

    Appreciate all the immediate help. I will make sure others know of your services.

    Do you have a donation link?

    Hi. :) Start a New thread in the Software Forum and give as much information as possible about your problem and when it occurs. Please also give you computer info such as what operating system you are using (ie. XP, Vista, etc) and other specs such as RAM.
