Hi,
I have been trying to remove this core.cahce.dsk. file - Spybot detects it but, unable to fix this issue.
whenever i browse the web, a blank IE window pops up and sometimes it has ads. Appreciate a quick help.

It is advisable that you back up your personal data before starting any clean up procedure.

Download Trendmicros Hijackthis (http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/_download/HJTInstall.exe) to your desktop.

Double click it to install
Follow the prompts and by default it will install in C:\Program Files\Trendmicro\Hijackthis\Highjackthis.exe
Open HJT Scan and Save a Log File, it will open in Notepad
Go to Format and make sure Wordwrap is Unchecked

DO NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.
