I might be wrong, but I believe the problem is not in Nik's web page code, but a small javascript injected by a Firefox and Chrome add on. Hmmm. Did I read that in some of the replies?
My fault because I know my system is 'currently' virus proof and I completely forgot about browser addons because they don't actually reside in the system, just in the browser and only when enabled.

So a quick delete and a red face for not thinking of checking the browser and double checking the browser code, and it is gone. At least I don;t have a registry to clean :-) And a firm boot up the bum for complacency.

And an apology to Nik, Paul, David, Ray et al. Well, maybe not al..

Many Many Thanks for every bodies efforts in this, Thanks Ross for pointing this out in the first place as I wouldnt have been at all surprised if something had happened along these lines - I do have a daily scan to stop things like this '6 Scan' but I dont know how effective that actually is.

Also everyone else for looking at the code and working out what the problem was.

Your a great bunch of people :)

Not much chance of viruses or adware here. System is pretty well bullet proof. And I've been working in the computer industry since 1971, so I'm well aware of what can and can't find its way in. At the moment, there is nothing known that can make it through. Including the bash vulnerability.
The only safe computer is one that is switched off. Anything else is a doorway waiting to be opened :) :)
