When i log on to poly from home, i get a message that my PC is infected with the above parasite and instructions for deleting it. My home PC has been slow of late. I just want to confirm that this message is genuine (yet another service from Poly) and not itself a virus of some kind before i do as it says. Anyone know more?

There was another thread about this a month or so ago...
The short answer is yes, the message is genuine. It's a service that's helped me in the past.

Well, yes, if you look at that thread joncha referenced that was me asking the question two months ago.
and I still have a problem.
I have tried to use every adware/spyware removal program and it's completely hopeless. I can't extract whatever crap got downloaded without my permission.
I will credit Apolyton for alerting me that I had a problem in the first place.Haven't been here for ages....Comment
