        This might be of some use chaps....

        My son loaded it for me:- CCleaner.com

        It permanently removes all temp. internet stuff, cookies, history, re-cycle bin and a whole lot more if you wish. I run it every day, it only takes a few minutes and works really well.

        Please don't ask me any questions, I just press a button and run the thing!

        Cheers,

        Ron

          There's lots available. CCleaner is one I ran when infected as well. What one misses another may well catch. Removing Ukash manually is not easy!

            Thanks for the info and advice lads, I also run System Mechanic 11.5 latest version. This and the BT NetProtect Plus are all supposed to offer real time protection. I also have Windows set to delete all browser history etc so I have no idea how it got past that lot. Safe mode automatically disconnects you from the internet so you are safely scanning the computer. I also use anti- keystroke logging software.

            As mentioned I was researching for my F-14 on Google, and you have probably seen those sites which are unattributed but which show four small icons of photos; this one had an Iranian F-14 in the desert splinter camo very similar to what I have planned. When I clicked on the Icon a load of pop-up's appeared and then the Interpol screen. I very quickly did a computer shut down using the ON buttom. Have now changed my Windows setting to block all pop-ups.

            Thanks again

                I had the same recently. I've visited the site more recently (couple of days ago) with no problem.

                  I also visit Britmodeller and it seems to be more a problem with Firefox and the forum section. I get the warning almost every visit but never had a problem register on my computer. I also never use Windows to visit the internet either, I have a seperate Linux partition for all internet stuff, never had a virus/trojan problem yet.
