1417819 2016-03-21 09:34:00 See you have Smart Security,maybe be time to change from Nod32 Lawrence (2987)
1417820 2016-03-21 09:48:00 Well the scan with Nod32 was clean just downloading Emsisoft Emergency Kit to see if it finds anything Lawrence (2987)
1417821 2016-03-21 19:08:00 Ran quite a few differing Antimalware/Antivirus scans and completely clean

Just wondering if it comes down to the type of Browser/ ad blocking used which in my case was PaleMoon and Adblock Latitude

Wonder who else was caught out

Thanks for your effort and advice, It looks as if Emsisoft Emergency Kit scanner cleaned it out on the second run of custom- keeping my fingers crossed.
I considered running ComboFix, but when i downloaded it, without a pause, or putting an icon on my desktop, it launched, so i aborted it there and then.
If the problem re emerges, I will try it, printed off the 16 pages of notes that goes with it -
This is obviously a suite one runs with extreme care.
Once again thanks for you advice, gratefully received
