    I would like to thank you very much Wicked for your help,i did as you told me and it worked a treat,so it is definatly McAfee,what a pain in the preverbial you know what lol,it cost me 50 bucks and it messes my rig up,uhhhhhh,i have found also that since unticking the boxs you suggested that when i boot up now i no longer have my firewall icon or my virus icon in the tray,does this mean im not protected now? and do i have to retick the said boxes to be protected again? thanks heaps again matey,and thanks for your patience on this matter. peace and joy to you,may the Good Lord smile upon you greatly.

    Hello Wicked,well as a matter of fact i have only recently purchased McAfee personal firewall plus version 6.0,do you think this may have some thing to do with it ? and i did a scan for that Flcss.exe and nothing came up on either of my drives,im also running McAfee anti virus,thats only the free job off the net though,and i have about 17 gig free on my drive at the moment.thanks for your help and your patience. peace and happiness to you wicked.

    scandisk and defrag no go . . .

    Hi there Wicked,yep sorry i should have included that,(Brain Fart)........ the opperating system is windows 98-SE,im not sure how old the HDD is but i do know it has no bad sectors in it,its a 20 gig,and no big files,or games,just the usual windows stuff,and a couple of files in my docs but not very big at all,i dont understand it really,a couple of weeks ago i did a defrag and a scandisk on it befor the format and it worked fine,now its up to mud,im not real smart when it come to the programs and stuff,but i can knock a puter up for some one in no time,so any help would be appreciated,and in laymans terms as well please,thx. peace to you matey. . .
