On another note, good job not paying the 50 pounds, as many many of these sorts of things are scams. Many people fall for these(why i am not sure), so kudos for using common sense. mike

Thanks for your help. I managed to fix it by opeing in safe command mode and typing in "explorer" as a command. The allowed me to start system restore which did the trick.
