I tried sending it to her twice, and both times I got a message saying it couldn't be delivered because it was a bad address. Can you just have her download it for you and put it on a floppy? Here's the website:

I don't know how you got Xoftspy from the link I gave you, but try going here:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html
Scroll down to Official downloads, and then down to HijackThis. Choose any one of the seven sites listed to download it from.

Do you have any messenger services (like Yahoo, AIM, MSN, etc.)? We may be able to transfer the HJT file that way if you still can't get it onto a floppy.

I have windows instant messager. I also have a .net passport under southern neon service. If youwould please email me the Hjt file one more time. at first I had my e-mail go directly to my isp at bellsouth.net. Not long ago I started resceiving my email through Microsoft Outlook. It still comes to bellsouth .net but while in Outlook I must hit the Send & Receive button and my mail downloads to outlook. If you will send me the hjt file again I will go directly to bellsouth internet services and open the mail there instead od opening it in outlook. Being as outlook is the one who blocked the attachment I might be able to retreive it this way. I dont know how you would send it through a IM service. Thanks

Mr dlh6412, I sent the e-mail with the hjt hyperlink to my son in law to download and save to a disk for me. He was unable to download it also because his system said it was a harmful file or something like that. I wonder if my machine has a virus in the e-mail and his machine detected it or if our machines both have some type of security rule that prohibits that type of file? I really dont know what to do. You can send him the hjt link if you think that will do it. I would really like to get this issue over with and I appreciate all of you guys patients and support. Please let me know the next move. Thanks
