Thank you I've done this and it gets rid of the "imminent" problem. But when I reboot imminent comes back. I also have ran regedit and removed "imminent" and "Favicon", but have to keep doing this. Can you help with this?

Your advice does not help. I have Windows 7. Iminent does not appear in my list of programs to uninstall. Also, if I go to google, tools, estensions, nothing shows for Iminent. Yet I am plagued by Iminent. Can you help? My email: ******@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks, Peter
