Help me with my homework??

I've looked at your homework and I don't even understand the question :o. Am happy to proof-read your answer though.

I doubt we will have time - it's due Tuesday

Pretty, pretty, please

Help me

Have you closed down your browser and restarted it? Have you brought up Task Manager (ctrl alt delete usually does it) to see what apps are running?

Nothing on Task Manager

So I randomly deleted things and did a restart

It has worked so far

Thanks

What was the link?

I'd download and run something like the free version of Malware Bytes (www.malwarebytes.org/) to check that there's nothing nasty lurking on your machine.

Thanks I did & it was fine
