  1. Hi, I think I have sussed it out... My system kept restoring itself after each fix- so after deactivating the system restore- the Spybot, CWS Shredder etc clean worked for the about:blank and the IE (& cd drawer)... I have removed the red thing from the desktop by simply deleting it in the display menu... i'm not sure if it has gone for good- but everything seems ok for now... Deactivating the system restore seems so simple that i'm kicking myself I didn't think of it before... Thanks anyway besttechie Dave.
