After opening a regular email subscription from BBC News London, my IE Browers gained an info bar below the address line. It is labeled "Mirar" and seems to offer additional web site selections based upon which webpage you are one.

I have run spybot and ad-aware and they identify this is a browser data miner and the threat is "severe."

Spybot says it removes it, but the bar is still there and still functioning, depending on the website I am on.

I ran a check on this on Google and it tells me that this is related to "AcrolEHelper".

Is there software to get this off my laptop?
