You'd be better off just cleaning her drive while it's still in her computer. Plus, it will save you the hassle of opening up two computers.

Atomic Rooster Omnipotent One Messages 11,161 Location USA Aug 6, 2007 #4 I like to run both Spybot and AdAware. One picks up what the other may miss. They work very well no matter how much is loaded on the drive.
