It's on my clipboard. I don't copy anything, just paste, and this appears.
Is this the blasted thing that slows down my connection, and keeps giving me a pop-up to some stupid Portuguese furniture store? Or every now and then when I open a new page you can see along the bottom bar that something opens, then closes again. I keep wiping stuff out with Ad-Aware, and it keeps coming back.
Any suggestions?

a dll must of installed sometime when download something. It is like a pop under sort of thing that sees the sites you visit then send you to adverisers with certain keywords.
it tells you how to delete the dll on the link I gave above.

Ta Nick, but as I said, I already have Ad-Aware (the free one) and yes it is up to date! Hence the confusion. Maybe you're right, I have to cough up for the version with the blocker.
