I did get rid of it using the advanced controls - however
it came back & now I can't get on to most sites at all!
See the new post under "Applications" to see if the issue
gets resolved.....

The only possible solution I can suggest is to restart your computer in safe
mode, on the Scan Page of Microsoft AntiSpyware, choose Scan Options and do
a full system scan. Also turn off system restore, just in case it tries to
restore itself with system snapshop, (Right click My Computer > Properties >
System Restore).

Also Enable show hidden files and folders and go to C:\ Documents and
Settings > You Username > Local Settings > Temp (folder) and empty its
contents.
