This is a very interesting thread, luckily I haven't experienced it although my dad recently had major probs after someone opened an email re a tax return from the inland rev.

I am experiencing something else quite weird though which was intermittent and now is always.
I can access various websites which are saved in my bookmarks and use them with no problems, however, if i go into google via either Mozilla or internet Explores it constantly crashes.
Can't remember what the messages say so I will try to open up a web page shortly and copy them.

Any one heard of this before?

It is Mark, good point to bring up for a defence - but 'my' problem wasn't related to my PC or any Malware/Spyware/Virus problem ..................... the yahoo email accounts were hacked into from a different location so I had no way of 'preventing' it with software installed on my laptop.

I just searched on Google and it seems like may are also experiencing the same problem Mandy, what operating system are you using?

Not sure if you can open up this link but have a look at the common posts relating to the problem: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=google ... =firefox-a

I have XP 2002 I think it may be service pack 2?

Just had a click on the link and it actually stayed open so I will try and have a read if it will allow me to.
