I really don't know anything much about IT and the like, I usually leave that stuff to my kids, should I need a hand, but many thanks for trying to help a selfconfessed technophobe.

Glad to be of assistance Ray, I'm an MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) & its difficult for me at times too mate, I.T is a massive subject that covers a very wide collection of technologies

If you wish to have a very free safe browsing solution set up a virtual PC on your machine & browse via this, any attack will infect the virtual PC operating system not your actual PCs O S & therefore any embedded nasty software will have no effect on your physical device, delete the virtual machine & install another, a bit long winded but is a really good free way to add an extra line of defence. 

Completely agree.  I have a new machine on order (i7, with 16 Gb RAM), and I am planning to use it in exactly that mode.  One VM for secure transactions (banking, stockerbroker, etc), one for normal use, one for risky use, and one as a server.  The "risky" VM will be trashed after every session.

Good strategy Phil, plenty of sacrificial lines of defence.
