I fixed everything - I ran windows restore to an earlier point in time which FAILED because BDantiramsom was running - Nevertheless I thought I would then try to execute the downloaded MB3 program which I could not get to run before the failed attempted to restore - - it now ran and so installed the program but now didn't have the key - searched my emails for the invitation to set up an account (which I had ignored back in November) - set up an account and the activation key became visible which worked, As yet there is no error message concerning real time - happy days
