Sounds like it, certainly I have nothing like that.

Did you say in another thread you have an 8 and 12 year old? I know my kids kept on laoding heaps of c#^p onto my machine.

Ended up building them their own and every couple of months I would just re-image it, they soon learnt.

Shut up you .... Fixed it and yes - going down that path soon. The Med program we use (MMEx) is being developed along those lines and we  can squeeze the Shit out of users with group ploicy on IE to control access etc. I'm over Chrome though and Java policies just to print med labels, Path results etc... To much to explain here D4D, need to have a yarn one day soon....

PS The new 365 version is aw-sum and the sky-drive profession that comes with that is excellent..You guys may like that.

I had this same problem with the 4wd action forum.

Their forum page is set up so the adds are down the right side of the page.

Mine weren't 4wd adds, they were links to dating sights and weight loss programmes.

It was the only forum I was a member off that had this problem. This place and the Mitsubishi forum I was a member off didn't have these links.

I reported to the Mods (I was one too), and I was pretty much to go away and don't bother them as they didn't believe me, even though I showed them screen prints as the above post. They said it was a software problem on my computer, yet they were the only site that had this problem.

I left their forum and haven't been back. >:D
