Anyway I have 'J/S Downloader.Agent' flash up on AVG antivirus but will not go to vault when I try. I have run scans on Ad-aware 6, AVG and Spyware Begone. Only AVG recognises it but wont get rid of it. I guess its a tracking device of some kind. Not sure if topic has been brought up before, but could not find in the previous posts. How can I get rid of the pesky thing? regards Billyblog Edit: Moved topic from XP to the more appropriate forum. ~ Animal

Sometimes cleaning out your temp/temp Internet files will resolve this. Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune & save it to your desktop. alternate download link Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program. Under Main "*Select Files to Delete" choose: Select All. Click the Empty Selected* button. If you use Firefox browser click Firefox at the top and choose: Select All Click the Empty Selected button. If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt. If you use Opera browser click Opera at the top and choose: Select All Click the Empty Selected button. If you would like to keep your saved passwords, please click No at the prompt. Click Exit on the Main menu to close the program. Note: On Vista, "Windows Temp" is disabled. To empty "Windows Temp" ATF-Cleaner must be "Run as an Administrator". -------------------- "THE BAD GUYS DON'T NEED A SEARCH WARRANT. ARE YOU PROTECTED?" Microsoft MVP - Windows Security 2007-2008
