Please give us some kind of hint as to the problem. You have given no information at all for us to help you. Name of Virus if you have it? Did you download something? Your OS? Do you have any kind of virus protection? If so what is it? Do you have any spyware protection? If so what is it? We will try to help you but we are not mind readers. Grin

CNET forums. People can search for answers to questions that way. I'm amazed that you even found this thread after almost a year. I had to have been buried way back on an old page, they go by dates.

Unless there is a forum policy violation, posts are not removed..Not sure which post in XP your talking about but there is only one post in the XP forum, by you, that was posted three months ago.

On 7.28.05

You've posted quite a bit during the month of October. In the recent past, you've posted only once in July and a number of times in May. Lots of other posts before that as well. Here are just a couple of links to your previous posts prior to 3 months ago.

If your post isn't there, then it may have been removed due to forum policy issues.

Hope this helps.

Spy, OK, Three Months Or Ten Months...No Matter..
Oct 25, 2005 10:28AM PDT

Here's a post from ten months ago by you:

http://reviews.cnet.com/5208-6142-0.html?forumID=5&threadID=47488&messageID=649067&tag=

There are lots of other ones from January 05 as well. I just chose one from January 1.

Click on the link below for the search engine...Then type in your username (spy hh) in the "Author" line, then click on "Search".

If you're talking about ONE SPECIFIC post, I guess it's possible that it was accidently deleted by a moderator but that's very unlikely..Accidents are possible but not probable. As I stated before, unless it was a policy violation, it will be there.

Hope this helps.
