You seem very pedantic ! and I think you would take 3 times as long to fix a pc as anyone else .



Pedantic? Perhaps, but literate, maybe no . . . because I had to look up what pedantic meant!

My attitude is one of containing a problem, with a high degree of paranoia about it spreading far and wide for every second you may be online . . . and possibly spamming all your contacts with off colour stuff sent under the guise of your own name .

So yeah, I do take a while . Restrict the spread (although it's probably too late) . Try to eliminate or identify with existing tools, and particularly, find out what the nasties typically do . . . then adjust the degree of paranoia up or down, and take the next steps towards ensuring complete removal .

I'm just a user who's learnt through immersion, and somehow being the first sucker everyone else turns to when they have problems . . . and that willingness to help (and boredom) are also to some extent why I'm hanging around PressF1 .

Beats working!

And it's an easy way to pick up tips . . . just browsing the threads .
These forums are a rare thing - being remarkably free of trolls and a55hole5 .

Many thanks to the ever patient and polite moderators I suspect . :banana
