Hotmail problem
When I create a new message and hit To, Cc, or Bcc, at the end of the list of contacts appears "AdultFunRoom" in bold with no email adjacent to it. I was unable to delete it from contacts because it wasn't listed.

Thinking I had either a virus or malware I turned off system restore, started the computer in safe mode and ran Microsoft's security essentials which found nothing. Also ran Spybot, Malwarebyte, which also found nothing.

I went to a Mac and found that the same AdultFunRoom appears in hotmail there. I goggled it and one comment said, “you are allowing the Web Chat to connect to the Austnet network.” It seems that I inadvertently gave the ok for this to happen.
Any ideas on how to get rid of it?
