    Hi Shelga
    Have you read through this yet?

    *edit*
    You might want to download and run adaware and let it rid you of all it finds.

    I'm pretty sure it catches this one.

    You have something in your startup putting it back. Daizy has a good suggestion for you. After you use Ad-Aware, use HijackThis and post the log from it on here and we'll take a look at it. Don't do anything with HijackThis, yet. The link is down below.
