Try the instructions at the following website. This looks very much
like a spyware variant and these instructions should help you.

I would also recommend reading the following pages also. The spyware
info site requires a registration that is free. The information in
their is invaluable. You could also download and install Hijack this
and post your log into the spywareinfo forums.
