I had removed the Couponica spyware from my computer, but
in Internet Explorer if I right click on the page, the
drop down list contains Couponica Preferences. Does
anyone know how to remove this?

Hiya! Have you tried running an adware removal program like Adaware or Spybot
Search and Destroy? They might remove the entries as well.

Go to Start | Run and type

regedit

Navigate to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt

and click on the plus (+) sign in front of MenuExt. Right click the subkey
representing what you want to get rid of and select Delete.

Or... Toolbar Cop from http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/Toolkit.htm can remove
these and other unwanted items.

I tried Ad-Aware, Spy-bot, Spyware Blaster, SpySweeper,
and none of them found this trace.
