In Internet Explorer (Windows XP pro SP2) when right clicking on any
accessed site the following appears in the floating menu:
>>> HARDCORE MOVIES <<<. Is there any way I can remove this? I have no
>>> Malware, virus etc...

Thanks for the info.I ran hijack and with no success. I think I have to hack
the registery to remove the entry and I don't know where to look for.

Well, I have the Googlebar installed, and this is the key location where the
Googlebar add-in right click menu is kept...

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

You might want to run Regedit anjd search for the EXACT TEXT you get when
you right-click.
