I have Figured out how/where you got it, and how to easily remove it, as you know its a virus that makes you get annoying popups + on your task manager you will see 2 "internet.exe" making your pc slower. Listen carefully kudasai, you got this ( if like me) from MSN, Plus update ( where it will automaticly instal its sponsor ) this is the adclicker, to remove it go to instaled programs, click on MSN plus, and remove sponsor ( circle development ). it fixed my pc, i hope it does the sane for you! good luck
