Hi Lucy,
Welcome to the forum
I'd love to help you, but either I'm not qualified to help you or I don't understand what you mean. It might be a good idea to ask your question in hte general discussion. Sometimes questions asked in the classic forum are overlooked. I'm sure someone will help you. Everybody here is really nice and helpfull.
Again, welcome to the forum

I hope you'll have a wonderlandfull time here
Mette

Lucy,
Check your computer for spyware!!! Do you have any anti-spyware programs? If not, I suggest you get some.
Ad-aware: get the free version from this site.
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/
Spybot: also free. Get it here.
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
Spywareblaster: Also free; this will block spyware programs from installing themselves through your browser.

Update and scan your machine with each of these
at least once a week
Consider changing your browser if you are still using Internet Explorer. Firefox is a very nice alternative that is almost impervious to spyware. get it from
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/start/
Don't say Yes to any pop-ups that appear on your screen while browsing,
(especially if they are warning you that you have spyware, because if you say Yes, you'll get some).
If you need any more help, if it is spyware, PM me (I'm not in this section very often) and I'll help in any way I can.
