It was not a virus because when I booted up this morning my computer dialled right into MacAfee as usual and I was able to download an update and do an online scan of my entire hard disk and no virus found. I do remember some weeks ago when my ISP NTL had an email problem some people could not run their AV programs. I will purchase Norton so I can run virus scan offline and maybe go back to BT.

Thanks to everyone who responded.
