Make sure that your virus detection and removal program is current with
virus definitions as of today and that you reboot it when you are done
updating definitions. Also try booting into Safe Mode to remove it if
problems persist and you could also try an online virus scanner as shown in
the links below. --- Steve

Go through the preliminary steps listed here:
http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

Then scan with either Sysclean or David Lipman's Multi-AV:

http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm - how to use Dave Lipman's Multi-AV
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe - Multi-AV download

Finish with the rest of the malware removal steps at the first link. I
would add Ewido to the list (link at site above).
