I Am Seriously Considering

[Jeza]

Binning this computer, Is there anything I need to do to it to keep my privacy safe?

If you are "binning" the computer then you can remove the hard drive and destroy it by drilling holes through it or pouring glue in it.
If not then format the hard drive at least.

Agree with chrisgel - take out the hard drive and wreck it with a hammer.

Thanks Chris, being a dummy can you tell me how to identify the hard drive?

dont...give it another try by

1. delete your history
2. delete cookies
3. pull electric from modem for 10mins

Boot up & lets start again

[ummmm]

You make me laugh, Tambo. You forgot to say 'turn it off and turn it back on again'

[Jeza]

I'll give it a go Tambo. Thankyou, It will have to be tomorrow. Please be around when I try it. Late afternoon though

[ummmm]

Jeza...wait for the people that know what they're talking about.

What is actually wrong with your computer?
