I agree with mr cambel that bt should foot the bill as they are to big for their own good
and i too last year got caught with trogen horse dialer when i was on a dial up connection all bt told me was that your are very lucky that the bill was only £7 as some have been thousand of pounds run up
and as i was just geting rid of pop up adds this diler was slyly concealed under some historical sites and when you clicked to cancel the program it automaticaly sent you to porn sites that i did not ask to go to i am now using broadband with panda platinum 7
firewaled and dialer blocker adds blockers etc i have also used norton internet security
2003 and found that hackers were able to switch off the firewall and antivirus sftware
by disabling the start up files etc
i spent many hours formating my computer last year and this year i have had clean out sdbot
worm.aeb worm system32\sisms.exe
and all the others before i used Panda platium 7 and as i built this machine myself back in 1999 i can say although i am using a amd 450
chip i have learnt more since being hacked on
numerous ocations over the years
my computer has had lots of viruses and i have used reg seeker spybot and adware 6
and many good free viruse progams and trial
software off this site but my amd450 is not stoped all together just a denial of severice
to use my printer etc and i feel sory for the gentleman mentiontioned earlier whos machine does not work properly anymore
i suspect this is due to spyware progarms
not the dialers he needs to go to lavasoft or this website and download adware six spyboy and and microsoft to update his computer
