I updated panda and it spotted an adware called LOP. I switched off sytsem
restore and it cleaned it.
Thanks for the help.

This looks suspiciously like the residuals of a WMF infection!
When was the last time you visited Windows Update?
When was the last time you updated AdAware and Panda?
Are these normal Icons, or oversized things that just look like icons -
what happens if you right-click on them, and select properties?
Have you tried deleting them?
Have you looked in MSCONFIG for new startup entries?

My son has been on my PC and suddenly I have four icons on my desktop
which say:
Cellphone ringtones
My antivirus update
Watch live TV
PartyPoker $100 free
I have run AdAdware, Spybot and Panda Antivirus, all of them find no
malware.
Can anyone give me some help on this one?
