Run malwarebytes (free). Looks like malware with a name like that. Either that or search the registry for "tibmyawx' and remove (delete) all references to it.

Malwarebytes did find adware when i ran it a few weeks back.This might of been part of that.Will do a registry search as you suggest.

Malware is a pain in the butt. I don't get it at work as we're subscribed to a really fierce anti virus/malware app (Webroot) which, whilst it works brilliantly, will delete anything it is even remotely suspicious about including dodgy apps on USB sticks. Saves me a lot of hassle to be honest even if it annoys workstation users. I don't use it at home as its almost like using neat bleach but that means running regular malware checks at least weekly. My son used to get them regularly so I installed Webroot on his. You can't even uninstall it unless you're in safe mode.
