I also saw this file come up but when i search for it it cannot be found.
C:\ProgrammeFiles\ISS\BlackICE\hosts\**

Hi I ran ad aware and done as you said.It found nothing which i thought was great and it was sussed but when i checked in prog files the iss file is still there.It has sub files such as attack list host list etc,when i delete them they dissappear but within seconds appear back there.I will try the restart f8 thingy and avg.
thanks again for your time mate,
