I have had the same problem with @live365 for some time now. I get it everytime I run Windows Media Player.. my solution has been to run Ccleaner after each time I use Windows Media Player.. AdAware also works.. Here is my HiJackThis log.. Hope it can be stopped from coming back...

Live365 Radio Network is integrated into WMP 10. In fact, WMP appears to be wrapped in a Live365 "skin" when you launch Live365 stations. Do you listen to their streams?
There isn't anything in this HJT log.
BTW, update your version of Sun's Java.
Thanks Winchester. I used WMP to listen to CD's and on Dictionary.com they have a word prononciation that uses WMP and everytime it gives me a live365 cookie... I guess Ccleaner will get used a lot.... Jim
You might try something like CookieWall to manage what is deposited: http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/network/cookie.htm
