Not here for a couple of days

Postby Oddley » Wed Mar 30, 2005 5:15 pm

I won't be online for a couple of days because I have picked up some adware. It's called CNSMIN almost impossible to remove, so I am going to have to do a clean install of my operating system.

This is just incase any questions are aimed at me I don't want to appear rude.

Oddley if you're still there don't do it yet.
Unless you're running WinMe you can remove it fairly easily.
PM me and I'll tell you how to do it.
If you're using Window Me then go ahead and format and reinstall as it's easier.

Good to hear it.
It's a very good bit of software although still in testing and not "officially released" yet it still works better than any of the others we've tried.
When it's finally released it'll probably be as part of a security update or service pack.
Glad you're still with us! :D
