Not the same problem as Mick's but for the last few days Adobe Acrobat Reader has been flashing on and then disappearing every time I log on to the site - or change pages. Anybody know why? Help would be appreciated!

Go to your quarantine box and delete the little perishers.

I have dyfuca on one of the works computers I keep deleting it and it keeps coming back the computer is going mad with pop-ups and icons apearing on the desktop, something is also creating dialup connections, I will let you know what I did if I can get shut of it.

You can try Spybot http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html and also the free version of Adaware http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/
