If all those by the way excellent links from Beer Farts above don't do the trick,try this 30 day free trial.It's specific for Trojans.

First and foremost, do not trust all answers here on Yahoo! Answers. People who are giving you sites to "remove" your virus may ( not intentionally ) give you a virus. Those programs such as SuperAntiSpyware and Avari are malware in disguise. To keep you system secure, research the programs instead of frantically installing all programs to get rid of the virus. Now here are some things you can use. Once again, if you do not trust me, research them.
To begin this process, we need you to go to www.download.com and install Avast! antivirus and AVG antivirus. Scan with them if they remove it, great if not then...
* Before starting, restart your computer and tap the F8 key to boot up in safe mode. Try Avast and AVG there. If not then do the following.
1. Go to www.housecall.com. It is a site with the best online antivirus scanner from Trend Micro.
2. Scan it if it removes your problem. great if not continue with these steps.
3. Go to www.mcafee.com and find the free online scanner.
4. Go to www.bitdefender.com and try their scanner.
5. If none of the online scanner get rid of the problem, go to www.free-av.com and install AntiVir which is a great,free, antivirus.
6. At this point, if your virus is still not gone, then you have to resort to heavy artilary with a trained professional. Ill give you the basic things you will need then follow onto www.bleepingcomputer.com and post your HJT log there. Ill show you how to do that.
- www.download.com
- Search HiJack This
- Install it and go to www.bleepingcomputer.com
- Find the appropriate section and post it there.
- A professional will help you out.
If you'd rather not use this method then there is one,ultimate,virus remover that will get rid of all viruses. You know what that is? A system reformat. System reformat wipes everything out of your hard drive. Note that this will make it how you jut bought your computer with no programs of yours installed. To do this, either
A. Use the recovery CD that came with your computer.
B. When you first start up your computer, tap the F10 and follow onscreen instructions.

Unfortuanatley your gonna have to purge the hard drive and your master boot record and re-format the hard drive to get rid of it, That virus is self-replicating and has spread to other files and will hide when you try to remove it
