hi, perhaps you can try Norton to remove the virus and protect your PC. but you need to pay for the software
i recommand you to use firefox with Google toolbar. firefox can disable all virus to run, because the virus can only run on IE.
besides, firefox can block any any poppus and disable any virus and adware, spyware on webpage, so, firefox is much safer than IE. as you know, most of the virus is spread throught internet and webpage.
firefox is much smaller than IE, so i run faster than IE.
download firefox for free:

Nortons is the very worse garbage in the world. Believe me I used it when I was not all the bright about Norton's ten years ago. An it is still to this day garbage that finds nothing. Plus when you go to remove Norton you are left with atleast 300 fragments glued to all your files and hidden all over your system.
If you can afford to spend $29.00, use what I use and the Government of China uses. Get rid of Nortons.
Read below:
Being a clinical psychiatrist I have a moral and legal obligation to keep my pc 100% clean from all virus/spyware/malware.
I tested every free and purchase antivirus system known. An I found only one that actually works 100%. Never had a virus or spyware in my system in nine years.
Go to, www.filseclab.com and download thier Twister AntiTrojan Virus program. (You will have to pay a small one time fee). You will never have to pay an annual fee for updates, support or new versions. The one time fee is for life. ($29.99)
The software company is located in Beijing, China. They have excellent support, frequent large signature updates an as always all new versions are free. No annual fee for anything.
Comes with a real time scanner that really works. Actually I am quite amazed over the nine years how well it works.
Scans memory on startup.
Real time scanning in the background.
Open any webpage with an embedded trojan/spyware or malware and scanner will clean on the spot. An It is really removed from your system.
Download any kind of program from zips, all compressed files, software files, music, etc,etc, an if there is a hidden embedded trojan,spyware,malware, this program will stop the download and clean. An will advise you to end the download.
Will even find a virus in the installer wizard, like "Wise Installer". And will stop the installation while it is being installed and clean. Plus this program always will trace back who installed the trojan.
I had a trojan in and wizard installer. Twister caught the trojan and stopped the installation. I wrote the origianl company and told them the wizard installer had an embedded trojan to steal your data. The company now uses thier own installer.
You can't beat this software for a one time purchase fee only. Actually I don't know of any antivirus progam that even comes close to this state of the art technology.
All I can say it is worth the one time fee. Your pc cost alot of money and you don't want it destroyed. Plus your privacy is protected at all times.
There is nothing in it for me to praise this program. I tell it like it is. If it is garbage then I will say so.
You have rogue dialers, download from www.emsisoft.com their free version of A2Squared spyware/malware. They only require that you provide them with your email address so that they can send you a registration code as they require you to copy & paste the code in free or purchase, plus the email address you used. After their computers validate, your will see, "Go with God's Speed, and you continue with the installation. Excellent free program with manual updates. Especially for rogue dialers.
Or you can download from www.ewido.net Their Ewido Malware program. Becomes free after thirty days if you don't purchase they just remove the guard in the tray and you must update on a manual basis. Excellent program as it scans all 174,000 objects in my pc.
Plus keep your Microsoft critical updates current. They come out every second Tuesday of each month.
The program from China will protect you if you don't use good pc habits. Try and stay out of porno sites, P2P, Bit Torrent, share file sites and crack houses.
Hope that your telephone bill with not be out of sight if you have rogue dialers.

you may be best to wipe your C drive clean and reinstall windows. That will for sure take care of it all. it's not hard to do either. if you have a installation disk it will guide you all along the way. if not it's time to see the computer tech.
