No probs

Once it has run through and cleaned your machine, you may still have to manually change your homepage back to google or whatever it was, but it should then stay that way and not revert to anything dodgy!

Let us know how you get on.

Do you get the same window from before or is it a bit different now?

Also can you take a screenshot of what's in add/remove programs? Some of it may have stashed itself in there.
