EACH TIME I NAVIGATE TO A PAGE, MY KASPERSKY IS PICKING UP A TROJAN RE-DIRECTOR AND BLOCKING IT.
MAY BE BEST TO CHECK IT OUT CHAPS

Thanks Mooch - Suggest you take a look at this

Applies to:
# Kaspersky Internet Security 2010
# Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010
# Kaspersky Internet Security 2009
# Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009
# Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Workstations MP4
On 25 January, 2010 at 02:03 Moscow time (GMT+3) an incorrect signature was added to the company’s antivirus databases. As a result, Kaspersky Lab products erroneously blocked some legitimate websites containing the link on a script, which is used in the contextual advertising system Google AdSense. When users visited a web resource, a message was displayed stating that the page contained the malicious program Trojan.JS.Redirector.ar.
Such detections of the malicious program Trojan.JS.Redirector.ar on some Google web pages are false alarms. The problem was resolved and by 19:00 Moscow time the company’s products had stopped generating alerts for legitimate Internet pages. Kaspersky Lab products automatically download the corrected antivirus databases.
Kaspersky Lab would like to apologize for any inconvenience this problem may have caused users. The company is continually improving its procedures for testing products and releasing updates to prevent such errors from occurring in future.

No problem Mooch. Over the 8 years RS246 has been online, we have only ever had one real "internet nasty". Glad this one is a false alarm
