That is strange. Do you need to put in a password to access your pc normally or has this just happened to? PC don't come with passwords set up unless you do so yourself.

If not have you tried deleting your cookies and see if that resolves the problem.

Do you have any virus protection software? if not you may have pick up a virus or spyware.

No i dont use passwords to get on the pc, i just switch on and go! had a brainwave before :idea: and i phoned the local pc shop who have repaired this pc a few months ago. He said it sounded as if its corrupt :mad: so now i have to take the pc in to get looked at tomorrow, so no dissing for me :rolleyes:

It maybe worthwhile buying some anti virus software after it has been fixed as this will help reduce the chance of it happening again.

I never bothered for my pc until I got a trojan and lost everything and had to have a new hard drive put in. I have never been without the software since.
