I'm not sure whether this helps anyone to understand what's happening?

I've just gone to www.meerkitty.blogspot.com in IE and the page it was
re-directed to was hXXp://www.find-use.net/inse.php?id=dname (I've
munged that).

Nothing at all showed up in the NOD32 Control Centre Threat Log.

I've re-run the a-squared scan to see whether it found the two malware
files it detected earlier, before I re-booted, but it didn't, so
presumably System Restore (or whatever it is) didn't just replace
them.

Any further ideas, anyone?
