Problem solved then Saphire.
The sky is NOT falling, and you are not DOOMED to reformat your hard disk. Just a simple incompatibility between the way that google's anti-phishing works and your firewall. Because the list of phishing sites is constantly changing the google add-on downloads its list of currently known sites during times of inactivity. Your firewall is seeing the list of sites which IT knows as phishing sites and raises the error/warning. Choose one or the other. BTW you can have the google search bar without the anti-phishing enabled Last edited by walwyn; 11-02-07 at 20:57. |

Thanks nirofo and walwyn I am so relieved, I can breath again I have turned the house upside down looking for my XP disks and one other disk I have mislaid.
I haven't had any windows come up since to give me any warnings. Thanks again.

Is this a real benefit.
On the subject of reformatting I just had to buy a new computer following a total hard drive crash on my much upgraded PC. I bought Dell because the whole operating system is kept in a hidden partition which you can recall in anything but a complete HD failure. You don't need to use the disks. I do have a full XP system on disk though.

That's just taking up unnecessary space on your hard drive, you'll still have to re-install all your software again if you reboot. Anyway you can set up a partition on your hard drive for storing the Win XP intallation files yourself if you really want to?? nirofo. |

It does come with all the bundled software. The computer is returned to the ex factory state. At this point HDD space is not an issue. I am thinking of creating a Ghost image on an external drive. I might then get rid of it.
