Thanks so much for your explanation which was brilliant and even I
understood!!!

I already did run various spyware removers and all but one of the links
you supplied are already on that pc, so for on strange reason those
buggers stay put, hence me wanting to clean the whole pc (and yup, I
did do the bakcing up lareday a couple of days ago)

The only thing I still have problems understanding is this
partitioning....I thought that if I clean the C: drive that would be
avalibale for me to install all programmes onto again? So, do I read
correctly, when I delete C I have to come up with a new letter? Any
which I like? Just asking because I do have a DVD player and a CD
recorder on that pc, plus various ports to plug my memory stick in...
