Yesterday I found this page: http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=si_hijack&mes sage.id=20674 It's a forum at Dell. In it a procedure which uses VundoFix batch file along with another app Hijackthis. I ran that and it seemed to be gone afterwords. I'm running win98 and I did not see all the files that were mentioned in the cleanup procedure. Consequently I did not think it worked, but apparently it did. It's not found anymore by Spybot, or Ad-Aware.
