Does anyone know how to get rid of the above link to a website? I
inadvertently must have subscribed to it, although I do not remember. I have
erased all the references to it on my PC but it still keeps
coming...Registry Cleaners do not remove it either.

What "above link"?
You posted in HTML, a definite no-no for newsgroups. I don't read
HTML-formatted posts. I only see the plain-text version. When
posting to newsgroups, use plain-text format.
Since you didn't bother to put the URL in your message, I (and others)
cannot see it. Even when I look at the raw source of your post, there
is no URL anywhere in it. And just WHERE is the "link" to the web
site?
Oh, I see, another one of those BT users. No, we are not there
looking over your shoulder to see what you are pointing at.
Sorry about the HTML, but the other poster looked at my heading and saw the
'above link' so please forgive and certainly forget.
I suppose the anonimity of usenet makes you little guys ruder than if we
were in the same room?

You are still posting in HTML to this text-only newsgroup. I don't think
you used to do that, so check your settings.
Note that "above link" .. the word *link* normally, in computer/web
speak, refers to a URL/URI, such as: http://example.com/something
The words "Platte account" contains no link and is ambiguous.
You're welcome in my room anytime, Quilly, and I'll talk the same as I
type here.

"Platte account" is not a URL or a link. Doesn't even qualify as a
sentence and is only to be used to introduce the topic of your message
(and it certainly is not a link). "Not at home" is a very appropriate
moniker.

No, I assure you, I'm the same in real life as I am here.
If I'm rude to you here, rest assured, I'd be rude in person as well.

"an icon placed by a virus"??
Somebody (Quilly?) has to update their AV software and do a careful scan,
then repeat the same with an antimalware program or 2!

Hi Jen, I had the same problem when I accessed the "Get Films Now" web
site. Didn't register with them but shortly afterwards had the same
Platte Account icon seemingly permanently placed on my desktop.
Deleted everything I could where Platte occurred all to no avail.
I did get rid of it however by doing a System Restore to a date prior
to the date when the problem began. It's gone now, hope this helps.
I got the answer from the PC Adviser forum
Just go to,
http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forums/in...1596&forumid=1
and the problem was solved.
