Try visiting http://www.lavasoft.com and download Adaware or google for Spyboy Search and Destroy. They should shift it.
I would suggest putting your mouse on the cross and it should tell you what it's called,don't click it tho ! Then go to add/remove and remove from there,or look for any program you definately dont know of and remove that,it's obviously been downloaded sometime or another.
I hope this has helped,im no genius
Find the name of the program, but post it here. You cna be sure that even if it has an entry in Add/Remove, you wont be able to.
