How can I get rid of this?

[GR7]

Does anyone know how I can get rid of this anti-virus advert that keeps appearing every time I click on a website, do a Google search or whatever please?

Go into your Control Panel and Add/Remove programs. There maybe something that has installed itself when you installed something else.

I can see the icon in the control panel but if I click it, it just says 'open' or 'shortcut' and when I go into the control panel to add or delete programmes I can't see it anywhere! I'll try Griff's idea thanks! No p**n for me Dansta!

Griff got the same prob. I've downloaded the spyware doctor and has found all the viruses but I can't get rid of them without a licence can i?
