There’s already a post on these forums with someone having problems with this, But I’m putting this up as a general warning.

I ran the demo listed on this page : http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=1733

I found that running CCleaner gets rid if it without closing the browser(IE7), But I don’t know if this will work on the real thing.
