Anyone have one of these in temporary internet files? Damn thing won't leave!

Seems to be something to do with SQL? The board was closed as was everything else and I don't have SQL installed that I know of......

Looks like a 50x50 pixel image of a face. An avatar?

I just did a search on my PC. I have it too.

But maybe I just got it from looking at your post. :unsure:

Were you able to delete it?
I tried norton file wipe and it just kinda goes " huh? "
even when it&#39;s set to wipe system files.
Check the trace image ( the map wasn&#39;t covered by the 16 bit dos window when I grabbed it)
It bounces to(?) edmonton, back to vancouver, back to calgary, and to an msn server in seattle.
The "application" you see in the folder is the trace result saved as html &#33;&#33; It gets stranger......

:blink: Well it&#39;s finally gone thanks to the link below. Why popup stopper and spybot and adaware and every other program I have failed is beyond me.
This fix was so simple It never occured to me to try it with all the high tech third party software that&#39;s installed to deal with these things :blink:

Mine is gone too. When you said you couldn&#39;t delete it I was assuming you had tried the &#39;Delete files&#39; button. ;) Sorry I didn&#39;t think you would miss that so I didn&#39;t say. I still think it is just an avatar you had seen somewhere. My copy is just from seeing this thread. :)

As for the trace it must be someones image server. :unsure: Lots of signals bounce back and forth before the communication completes. :blink:
