I googled it and found a site that might help.
It doens't require a system restart. So, you won't lose your files. It just takes a few simple steps.
Even though I've never had this virus before, and I have no idea whether it works.... here goes..

Run your anti virus program( You DO have one installed don't you ?) If not try avast, free from WWW.AVAST.COM and it's good.
Alsocheck for spyware files as below
I'd reccomend these 2, run each in turn
ADAWARE fro www.lavasoftusa.com (Free personal version)
also SPYBOT S&D from www.spybot.org (Again free for home use)
Also worth having in toolbox is CCLEANER from www.ccleaner.com again a free download, and a good general windows tidyup utility.
