Internet pest (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

troll

'internet pest' is the definition.
(abusive or irritating internet user)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for troll that I've seen before include "Folklore monster" , "Fish with a moving bait" , "Ugly Norse dwarf" , "Grotesque dwarf" , "Fish by trailing a baited line" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times, The Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph and The Independent.
