Spyware removing programs WON'T delete that type trojan

I did a search and it seems this would be considered spyware or adware. A couple of very good spyware / adware detection and removal utilities are Spybot and AdAware.
Spybot: http://www.download.com/Spybot-Search-Destroy/3000-8022_4-10401314.html?tag=lst-0-1
AdAware: http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022_4-10399602.html?tag=lst-0-1
Download and install them, preferably both, update them, and then scan your computer.
Also, when reviewing your computer for spyware, adware, and viruses, you should occassionally check that your "Hosts" file has not been corrupted. It can be found at either \\Winnt\System32\drivers\etc or \\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
You should most likely have nothing in the Host file below the "127.0.0.1 localhost" line. If there is a bunch of stuff in there, try to find another, uneditted version over or remove everything below the "127.0.0.1" line.
If you don't already have antivirus software installed, take a look at Avast Home Edition. If you like it, download, install, update, and scan your system with it also.

Download and Run: AVG ANTI VIRUS
SPYBOT- Search and destroy
EWIDO
AD-AWARE
(4 programs, run them, delete anything that comes up)
Should work.
Or...
Go to start
All programs
Accessories
System Tools
Click System Restore
Restore your system to an earlier date when you didnt have these problems.
Restart computer.
Either option will fix your problem. Just depends how long you want to take. First option longer time.

Install a virus protection and a spyware protection software and you'll, get rid of the infections that way.
