same message with better punctuation

I mentioned on here the other week about an apparent hack into my pooter. I caught and killed a couple of trojans, and have run several scans a few times since then but each has found nothing.

However, pooter behaviour has not been typical since. I'm talking to plusnet about the wretchedly low download speed that began at around the same time, (I don't think this has anything to do with the hack), and now whatever program I'm running tries to connect to the internet, having never done so before.

Should I be worried? Have I got something nasty hiding extremely well on my pooter, d'you think? I'm nervous of online shopping while this doubt exists.

Ta in advance
