The Boy "borrowed" my laptop and managed to connnect it to the interweb via a spare phone point in his bedroom.

I never use the laptop on tinterweb, hence NO firewall, NO virus software.No NADA

CHRIST. Over 200 viruses, many of which are int eh malware category and rediret IE to porn sites ( eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek:)



Checked cookies and IE History ( eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek:)

Decided to inform Mrs Nick who checked some of the websites herself ( eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek:)

Boy in big trouble. And it has taken me all effing day to wrest control of my laptop back  cussing: cussing:

Give him one of his own, at least you will then have a measure of control over it. Either that or install Net Nanny on all computers in the house.

Anyway a bit of porn never heard any boy ~ look at Berek ............ Oh I see what you mean.

As his little chum of the severed toes remarked a few months ago "Might as well not have one then". He now has internet capability ~ within limits.
