The same thing happened to my computer just last week!
I had went and bought, supposedly, the best anti-virus, spyware, malware, adware, ect. out there but the trojan virus I had stopped the CD I had so I was forced to download an anit-virus off the internet (another $50).
Sorry, but I'm not on my home computer at the moment so I cant tell the exact name of the program, but I believe the name of it was 'Winpro' something.
This program really is the best I found you can get off the internet, when I get back home, I'll check the name and everything for you and make another response.

Well you have to ask yourself, how far you are willing to go to get rid of your problem and how much money you have to get rid of it. If your experienced with the computer you can probably get rid of it on your own, pay a computer tech millions of wasted dollars or download some freeware/shareware adware, spyware cleaner. Just do a search there are lots of them out there. But to protect yourself in the future what I would do is reformat the entire operating system and install something like norton or mcafee and start protecting your system from square. People who do not reformat and install some sort of cleaner to get rid of the infection are prone to more probs because upon installation of the new program, the infected files will just "eat" the new installation files and render the program almost virtually "useless"

Most adware is installed by Trojans. To remove the adware you must remove the Trojan first, otherwise it will keep downloading the adware back on your computer. ewido is the best Trojan removal program available. Run the AdAware SE to remove the adware component.
When you go to the ewido site there is the option to run an online scan. It is located in the upper left panel. You might want to try that option first. Then download and run the AdAware SE. Do the steps listed below the programs if these scans fail to remove the infections.
Download and Update Ewido (now called the AVG Antispyware). Do not run:
http://www.ewido.net/en/download/
Download AdAware SE and update. Do the setup. Do not run:
http://www.filehippo.com/download_ad-aware/
AdAware SE Setup:
1. Select "use custom scanning options" then select "customize". Make sure the following options are enabled: "scan within archives," "scan active processes," "scan registry," "deep scan registry," "scan my IE favorites for banned URLs," "scan my Hosts file."
2. Select the "tweak" option. Under "scanning engine," make sure "unload recognized processes and modules during scan" is enabled. Enable "scan registry for all users instead of current users."
3. Under "cleaning engine" turn on "always try to unload modulesâ€Â¦," "during removal unload explorer and IE if necessary," "let windows remove files in use at next restart," and "delete quarantined items after restoring."
4. Use the "select drives and folders to scan" option to ensure that your entire hard drive is scanned (if you have more than one hard drive, scan all of them (of course, do not include floppy and CD/DVD).
TEMPORARILY SHOW HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS.
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Appearance and Themes, and then click Folder Options.
3. On the View tab, under Hidden files and folders, click "Show hidden files and folders", and clear(uncheck) the "Hide protected operating system files" check box.
IMPORTANT: Files are hidden by Windows for a very good reason. It is not wise to experiment with these files. Unfortunately, to successfully remove modern spyware we must turn this protection off temporarily. Please turn the protection back on when you have finished cleaning your system.
EMPTY INTERNET EXPLORER BROWSER CACHE:
1. On the Internet Explorer Tools menu, click Internet Options.
2. On the General tab, in the Temporary Internet Files section, click the Delete Files button. Select the Delete all offline content check box in the confirmation dialogue box that appears, click OK. Click OK again.
RESTART IN SAFE MODE:
To do this you need to hold down or repeatedly tap the F8 key while the computer is booting (when the computer is displaying a black screen with white text). When the boot menu appears, use your keyboard arrows to select "Safe Mode."
Safe Mode can look quite ugly. The color may look bad, and all of your desktop icons will be very large. This is normal.
START THE SCAN WITH YOUR ANTI-VIRUS OR ANTI-SPYWARE PROGRAM.
When the scan and removal are completed REBOOT COMPUTER. This will restart you in normal mode. DON'T FORGET TO RESET HIDDEN FILES AND FOLDERS.
NEW RESTORE POINT.
The RESTORE POINTS may be infected with the Malware and cannot be used.
HERE'S HOW:
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Click Performance and Maintenance, click System, and then click on the System Restore tab.
3. Select the Turn Off System Restore check box, click Apply, then restart your computer.
4. Return to the System Restore Tab and turn System Restore back on.
TO SET A NEW RESTORE POINT:
1. Click the Start button.
2. Point to Programs, then navigate to Accessories, then System Tools, then click System Restore.
3. Choose Create a restore point, and then click Next.
4. In the Restore point description box, type a name for your restore point, and then click Next.
5. Click OK.
NOTE: If you are using Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and are unable to access the Internet after removing Malware, there is a command that may fix the problem. It works by resetting the winsock catalogue. Click on Start, then Run and type CMD in the box. Click OK. Type "netsh winsock reset" (no quotes)into the DOS window that appears.
