Reply: Do you use Ad-Aware and/or SpyBot to keep your system spyware clean? You can get them at Wilders.Org, if you do not have them. Be a little careful with SpyBot, as it can mess up programs like Media Player, should you get aggressive with its settings. With Ad-Aware, I use it at its most aggressive settings with no problems. Either program should get rid of this pest. Most of us at this forum have and use both programs together. Take care and all the best!
