I too have the same problem. I checked with Microsoft this morning, and they verified
that this is not one of thier updates. This clearly points to spyware/adware. I
also have run Spybot and Antispyware and neither was able to remove the pesky file.
Can you walk me through the steps that you outlined previoulsy? I am a novice, so
try to be as specific as possible. Thanks.
