Well, so far so good.  The nuclear option appears to have worked so far.  I've reinstalled Norton and it hasn't picked up anything - of course that doesn't mean a bloody thing, since, you know, it is Norton we're talking about after all.  And the good news is that I actually did back up more than I thought I had, including some of my scribblings which is a huge relief. 

I've still got quite a lot of stuff to re-install but nothing too urgent thankfully.  The computer's running a little bit too slow for my liking, but hopefully that's fixable.  The really good news is that the hard drive seems to have stopped making that really scary noise - I can only hope that's a good thing.

Anyhoo, so far so good,  it looks like I'm back in business. *knocks on wood*
