It seems that the Microsoft "Live" c**p, and a Hotmail/Live account, and
"Bing" seem somehow to have combined/conspired to allow ATDMT ad-malware
into ones registry !
Had to delete a Hotmail/Live account in registry, to get rid of a persistant
AVG ATDMT cookie warning almost every time I started IE8

regards, Richard

As I recall, if you configure IE to purge all its cookies, those that WLM
generated will get deleted the next time you exit IE.
