Thanks very much for your responses. It looks as though the answer is to re-install Java. It certainly stops the problem.
Thanks

My sincere apologies! I said this problem was on my XP machine when in fact it's on my Win7 machine. So perhaps my thread needs to be moved. Sorry!
In response to your comments; I don't know which...

I’m not sure if this is the right place for this problem. If not please redirect me. Thanks.
With all of the reported problems with Java I thought I should uninstall it from my laptop, which I...

Many thanks for the helpful info. I wish I'd had it before I started trying to fix it (ah! well..... we amateurs!) I can't say I understand all the tech stuff, but at least I know I can uninstall it....

I have a strange problem and wonder if you can throw any light on it. I use Secunia PSI to keep my HP laptop up to date. A recent scan showed that Microsoft XML Core Services (MSXML) needed manual...

Thanks for all the advice. The idea of using the Comodo TrustConnect software sounds like good advice, especially if I have to use a wireless connection. I use WPA but the VPN alternative seems good.

Thanks for all the wisdom. I take the point about email. I used a hotel PC in Honolulu last year which must have had a keylogger installed. When I got home somebody was using my bandwidth until I...

I'm planning to go overseas (USA) and want to use my laptop to connect to the internet for normal surfing, including checking bank account balances, web mail, etc. I'm wondering if there are any...

Thanks. I took Tek's advice and downloaded from the Dell site. Installing went well although I had a few anxious moments setting up the connection as I hadn't noted down one vital piece of info....

I use Secunia PSI to warn me when software on my Dell Inspiron 6400 (Windows XP Home) needs updating. The program is telling me that my Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection Software 10.x is...

I'm really pleased to see so many votes for Acronis. I started using it a year ago and have never regretted it. It's set up to run every day automatically and does a good job. I do a new image weekly...

Thanks for your responses.
Using Explorer presents no problems but of course I need the window to use the Maxtor features.
I've tried using Move but dragging it doesn't work.

I have a OneTouch4 Mini portable drive.
My problem is that I am unable to drag the open window on my PC’s screen to another position. When I click on the pale blue top section in order to drag...

I downloaded RootkitRevealer which seems to work OK. I've also bookmarked F-Secure in case I need it.
While I was updating Ad-aware 2007 to the 2008 version today I notice that this can also...

When installing new software you usually get a message telling you to close all other applications. I do this which I suppose is to avoid conflicts but I'm unsure whether I should also close...

An after thought to my earlier post: a section of my thumb drive can be encrypted so perhaps I should hold my Excel file in that. Would that overcome the Excel insecurity?

Thanks Han I'll have a look at it.

Thanks, guys. My concerns are obviously on track. My current system is to keep this stuff on an Excel spreadsheet which I keep on a thumb drive guarded by a strong password. I suppose it could be a...

I've gathered a large number of passwords for websites, files and software. Keeping a record of these and then finding the right one for each use is becoming a problem.
My question is... if I use...

Thanks for the links. The 2nd one look like the necessary one, but I think I'll take your advice and wait a bit. Thanks.
