    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi PalmTest, Thanks for the input I really appreciate it. Unfortunately I was having trouble getting the Knoppix disk to download properly and put it to the back of my mind, then ended up deleting the nasty file from dos. I have now got Knoppix from bit torrent but don’t have the nasty file to...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi lhuegele, Done as you suggested, and you were right the files went no prob! I feel that as I deleted them from dos they will be “dead” as far as windows is concerned, so I won’t worry about them “lurking” on my hard drive. I know there is no need to worry about such things (I hope) but I...

    Cannot log in to hotmail

    Hi buxtonicer1, The tips you have been given so far are valuable and I would suggest that you follow them however there is another thing you should do, this will probably sound like a really weird tip to you, but I promise you it works. First thing you have to do is make sure that your time...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi Linney, cheers, I downloaded JPEGScan this morning and tried to scan the files but no joy, it cannot “see” them either, although interestingly the scan with JPEGScan command does show up in the mouse right click menu? Good idea about asking Symantec to help, thought of that myself and...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi Stu, you’re a good man, that *.* tip works no prob as far as delete is concerned,...however I could not edit it in dos (using Dos's own inbuilt editor) as dos tells me it cannot open the program and I’m getting increasingly paranoid the more I mess around with this seemingly invincible...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi BadFrog, Yep, been through the registry with full file name, partials and single words, nothing-zip-nada.....cant find any references to the files at all. I don’t really want to do a delete in safe mode as I’m not really sure that doing so would be any better than a straight forward delete...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi Badfrog, Thanks for the input, I was posting at same time as you so we’re out of sync, but have a look at my last reply and see what you think? At this stage I’m relatively sure this was no accident, as in a bug or corrupted faulty file, just too many thing against that being the case...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi StuReeves, Sorry for the out of sequence reply, you posted while I was posting...... Anyhoo, dos cannot see these files at all, I can get to the folder no problem but it shows as empty. I had actually also considered that someone had discovered a bug with the long file name and thought it...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi PalmTest, Thank you for the reply/heads up on the knoppix disk, that’s an idea that quite appeals to me. As far as the other antivirus, malware, ad aware etc, programs are concerned it’s as though they cannot see the file at all, or as they seem to see it as a system folder simply ignore it...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi Vacunita, Thank you for the very swift reply, unfortunately the sites you listed for me did not contain any info that would solve my particular problem I did write an email to Gretchen Hyman and the JupiterWeb management, so I’m hopeful that they will be able to help me. I’ll keep you posted...

    Jpeg is really a VIRUS!!

    Hi All, I know that this is prob not the right place to ask this question but I’m hoping someone here will be able to help. I’ve been looking for some info everywhere starting with the Windows XP Bible (desktop ed) which I have and think is great, then on the net, (Google searches, forum...

    Computeach (cobol stage3)

    Hi Thane, the Computeach people did not think I had enough detail in my charts, (and they should know as they are absolute experts at providing study material, with nowhere near enough detail) also my charts did not mirror my program exactly, but as I have mentioned previously there are errors...

    Computeach (cobol stage3)

    Hi, Jimlee thanks for the reply. You are very kind to offer personal help, but alas i live too far away to take you up on your offer (Although a house move to your area might be the cheaper option). Your right about me going over the earlier stages, thats exactly what i've been doing at the...

    Hi, pipk, thankyou for replying so quickly. As requested here is the problem. A stock movements transaction file is to be sequentially processed. The transaction records are in part number order. Each part number is to be checked against a stock master file. Any transactions for parts not...
