Thanks for that Val - Will keep both eyes open and also tell the other half.

It really makes me feel cross when these sick people try and get into your computers or send you viruses.  I always wonder what they get out of it !?  ??? >:(

If all the windows goodies are installed correctly on your computer, your computer should prompt you with critical security updates (appearing from the bottom right hand corner of the screen) when the time comes to do so.

Yellow Petals - you are correct in saying this.  I take it that our PC is virus/hacker proof!  ::) :D
