Thanks for responding David.
I've re-installed Java 6.0; I was using v5.0
VirtumundoBeGone.exe worked as expected.
WinFixerFix.exe wouldn't run.
vundofix.exe worked except it couldn't remove
c:\windows\system32\wprsalei.dll.
I can't find any reference to that file on the net & it didn't show up
on a search, so I deleted the 2 references to it from my registry. That
was risky as I didn't know what the file was for, however given the
nuisance value of what was happening, it was an acceptable risk.
Everything is working within normal parameters again. Thank you.
