Hello Hunting nuts,

This morning as I was running a check with Norton, the program halted on (Backdoor.Rustock.A). The word backdoor sounds bad to me, but I have zero computer knowledge since I am an elderly outdoor type rather than a computer wizard.

Can one of you geniuses give me some counselling?

My computer is a windows 7 with no extras, except for Norton an office 2010.
Thanks for the help, or if you think that the backdoor thing is not an open invitation to have access to my computer, thanks for reassuring me.

I wish a slow and painful demise on all writers of computer viruses...lowlife mongrels!!!!

My computer is still with the computer Doctor courtesy of a virus.
