Thanks very much.

I followed the instructions at http://malwaretips.com/blogs/mixi-dj-search-removal/ and used AdwCleaner and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and it seems to have worked. Just hope it stays away!

Cheers for your help!!

Just keep reading those screens before installing stuff.
A lot have the "Yeah, you can install that toolbar etc..." box already selected......Not good.

Glad to assist & hope your comp stays clean & safe.
