Spy Sheriff is evil malware. You have to clean up your computer. Start
by running noahdfear's SmitFraud and SpyAxe removal tool -

Then run David Lipman's tool -
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/SmitFraud.exe
David's Instructions:
Execute SmitFraud.exe (Note: You must accept the default of C:\McAfee)
Choose Unzip
Choose Close
NOTE: You may have to disable your software firewall or allow WGET.EXE
to go through your firewall to enable WGET.EXE to download the needed
McAfee-related files.
Execute c:\mcafee\clean.bat (or Double-click on 'Clean Link' in c
\mcafee)
A final report in HTML format called C:\mcafee\ScanReport.HTML will be
generated. At the end of the scan, it will be displayed in your browser
(Opera, FireFox or Internet Explorer). It is suggested that you move
the report out of c:\mcafee before performing another scan.
Continue with general malware removal -
