I had something like that before. I did a Google search on it and it came up with a site dedicated to removing that particular spyware. Might be worth a try for you too...

Google search for Spybot and Also "Hijack This"

Install both - run spybot - gets rid of most

Run Hijack this and post the outputed text file on the site u dowloaded from. They will post back what to delete.

Worked for me..

See here for spybot:

www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=home

It’s very good. Even has a shield that warns you when you go to a web site that tries to install spyware so you can block it.

Go format, then install Linux.

Which was I was about to say... Run a non-Windows O/S - although there are odd web sites you cannot access because they haven't developed them properly, the advantages way out-weigh (!) the disadvantages. No spyware, no viruses, no registry hacks, no popups, no MS Messenger spam, vastly fewer crashes.
