Opened up Redbox and clicked on "Movies". A page opened up wanting me to take a survey and it looked like it was from Redbox offering me a free prize. My paranoia went to full alert. It was one of those that has not cancel button. Used Taskkill and shut it down.
Just thought it was a fluke and went to Fox News and got a similiar one. Immediately ran MBAM and it found Playbryte.
Checked up on it and found out it was not considered a Virus or Trojan but and actual browser/toolbar. Deleted it and an add-on called "Cupon Companion".
Ran MSE and MBAM Root-Kit to be safe.
Checked the registry for anymore entries and everything seems to be clear.
Has anybody ran across this one and what would have kept it off my PC? I am very particular about downloading anything from questionable links.

Before your post, never heard of it. Could it have been one of those pre-selected applications that is piggybacked on freeware? -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum
