Neither Ad-aware or Spybot return any results for this, so I decided to take a more manual approach, and eventually I found the Web.exe file. This executable contains the same wrench icon that accompanies the SITEBAR pop-up, so I can only assume that this is the source of my woes. I promptly deleted it and rebooted to see if it had worked.
No dice.
So, running a search on both my C: and E: drives, I discover that the Web.exe file is still there on my C: drive. And the question I am about to obviously impose; How do I get rid of it?
