    What a surprise, Am!

    Get an XX seat licence for MWB Premium. Worth whatever it costs (much less pro rata for extra licences).

    Compared with the flaming time and frustration that invariably attends these sort of problems. Most of the time I have had clients paying me for my time, but had plenty of them privately too.

    It will also block either inadvertent or secret download of this sort of poxware in future.

    Last word on this...
    (No, it's not Zn )

    After checking all the other computers here and checking with a friend with a similar one
    that none of them had it, I uninstalled that vexing program today. Ie, jettisoned Jetmedia
    just using Win Uninstall...

    Good move IMO, Am.

    Just remember that without MWB, you probably wouldn't have even known it was there ... .

    Hmm! I hope not. After the Premium version trial I'll be back to Win Defender doing
    most of it. I'm sure I've seen it blocking before

    If you are not going to subscribe to MWB, may I suggest v.1.x of Spybot (not v.2.x!) PLUS SpywareBlaster.

    The former offers real time protection against all sorts of spyware. The latter blocks web sites it knows to be bad.

    I also use a desktop firewall program that hasn't been updated since 2004! It doesn't need to be updated as it compares the checksum of any process trying to access either the internet or other computers on the local network with what the checksum was when the target program had its original access approved. If the checksum has changed, the firewall program default is to block access.
