I am sure the culprit is some app called pp10.exe, but I have been unable to

me a steer?

pp10.exe appears to be coming from a malicious website. It also
puts a startup in the registry. Malwarebytes.org was able to fix the
problem, for me. And find others.

I was able to back track this to a Ukraine server. The url that it
came from at the time was mypc-securityscan.com. but that is maybe
worthless now. Two websites I went to that let you check URLs didn't
have that domain listed. But they did have the IP address listed. I
submitted the website for review and it appears that it is now
registered as such.

I tried Jitto the other day and it didn't work for me. Since it is
almost impossible to block new domains these days, I can only suggest
that we try to submit bad websites so the RBL stay updated. I can't
find a post about rouge banner adds, but be on the look out.
