    Thank you for all your help Rik, any advice on how to get rid of the Rebate Informer folder? I tried Revo and all it did was uninstall firefox, it wouldn't touch the Rebate icon in the folder

    Open malwarebytes
    Goto MORE TOOLS
    then RUN TOOL
    Manually find and destroy the entire folder

    Thank you Rik, it's gone now :D I have informed both Managers not to install anything on to this computer now unless I am here and can scan everything before it happens.
