Ok Dave...............
I am ahead of you this time, I have a ghost version ready but it was (fortunately ) easier just to try the fix first, but yes point well taken.
What has helped me out on previous occasions was to make a restore point before attempting suspicious software but in this case I would not have been able to open the restore before the graphics took over.
Come to think about it...this is actually a good idea as a virus to send to somebody you don't like ! ( Just kidding )
On the same subject: there is a software program available called "Go Back" which loads even before windows starts which works the same as win Restore and gives you the opportunity to go back in time and do a system restore but as opposed to Restore, this program make restore points several times a day and puts meaningful names to these points so one can easily identify where things went wrong and restore to before that. I.E. you lose nothing.
So..actually a lesson for all PC users !

I have popped this onto my work PC's (3 of them) http://www.netlimiter.com/. You can set it up so that it does not even show it's presence on the task bar. You can firewall or throttle speed per application.
Facebook is a found in a browser, so not able to throttle I'm afraid. but Yahoo, Skype and MSN chat has died in my office
I already have enough hassle trying to make things fit into a monthly cap of 15gig. Kills me when I see a bill for 30gig for a total of a 5 machine network.
Right, restore point not available? What about the safe mode function? You can roll back on that menu?? Before the OS even stats AND more importantly what kind of a tech does life testing! My word man! You get a computer and set it up for testing THEN only do you start playing with stuff! That is like 101 for computers NEVER play with a live network, servers or policies if you don’t know the tech or software....
well Google Sun Vitrual-Box it is free and it acts like a real computer.
You can do testing with it and more importantly it allows you to just “make a new image” if something goes wrong. I am using it to talk to you right now!! JIP this is a virtual computer I use to run on the net because of viruses and all kinds of bad stuff. And it works extremely well.

@Abcab Wow! In our office we have 2 pc's, we use the 'net LOTS, and still have bandwidth left out of 5gig.

Tony, I am member on 7 4x4 forums and contribute quiet a lot. I post a bunch of pics and I am a youtube junky. My wife chats on Yahoo a lot, and my daughter never gets off facebook and skype. Then I have a 17 year old son who loves his online games, oh and then a office of 4 people all on the same line. Neotel was slow enough to keep it all in check, but the service became slow and unreliable and I had to revert back to to telkom. On a 4meg line the bandwidth goes nowhere. Since Sunday I have averaged around 400 to700Mb per day.
LOL, I at the moment have an online game on the one monitor and this forum with another 4 open on the other monitor. I am contemplating dropping down to a 512 line and going uncapped for around R800. That is probably going to be the cheapest option for me.

Now that's something I didn't want to see (although quietly I've been expecting it would come one day). Neotel would seem to be going the way of all the other wireless options then - slower and slower as they gain popularity until you're ready to scream, slash your wrists or (worst of all) go back to Telkom
