Hey Mick, I'm sorry to hear you got caught with "no mercy" but you didn't have to redo your computer. If you downloaded NoMercy from the internet you could have disabled it by removing its entry in the registry that had the program start whenever windows started. as follows:(HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Runonce ) For those of you interested (If this is what I think Mick is referring to) No Mercy is one of those gag programs that does many things to drive someone crazy, but it is pretty extreme. The mouse cursor is uncontrollable, everything is reversed, random wallpapers are set, sounds change, and it seems like there is no way to control your computer. It does some other random things as well, but i didn't keep it long enough to find out.
