hi Paul, after reading your own and Edel's response to my plea I realise that yes, my son in law does have access to my computer, I just didn't realise that the program enabling him to do this was called log me. I have up dated it for him so all is well. although my son in law Richard, has access to my computer he has only accessed my computer rarely, which has proved invaluable to me on those occasions.

I'd say don't install anything and speak to Paul tomorrow.
