Hello cee,

Reboot into Safe Mode. (tapping F8 or F5)

Uninstall the following via the Add/Remove Panel (Start->(Settings)->Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs) if they exist:

joystick networks

Delete the following Folders:

C:\PROGRAM FILES\joystick networks
C:\PROGRAM FILES\COMMON FILES\InetGet

Clear your Temporary Internet Files: Go to Start > Run and type cleanmgr in the box. Let it scan your system for files to remove. Make sure Temporary Internet Files is 'checked' and click OK.

Empty your Microsoft AntiSpyware Quarantine Folder

Special Note:
MicroSoft AntiSpyware Program:
Because of recent changes in the way this program now defines and detects spyware/adware, it is no longer recommended as a spyware removal tool. Microsoft has downgraded several adware/spyware programs that it used to detect and remove and now lists them simply as “Ignore”

These are some of the adware/spyware programs that this program will NOT prompt you to remove. Claria, 180Solutions, WhenU, New.net, most WhenU apps, eZula,TopText, Gain/Gator, and Webhancer. These are all known adware/spyware programs and hijackers. Basically this product can no longer be trusted. We recommend you uninstall it.

Run Panda one more time and post it here please.
