Sorry Dave & Br0wnbear
thanks for the prompt reply, first time I have used a disscussion group
realy impressed, You proberbly thought I hadden't got any protection

I forgot to mention that I have System restored a number of times, have AVG
7 and also downloaded Adware SE to get rid or these, but I still get the
pesky little things when I run AVG I have removed AVG and redownloaded it but
I still get this happening

Thanks for your help
