I have the same problem and i just downloaded an antispyeare softeware, the free version and i’m scanning right now. It has detected it so hopefully it’ll be able to remove it completely. Here’s the website: http://toptenantispyware.com
Get the free version.
Edit: I also tried spyware doctor, spyhunter, and Lavasoft’s Ad-Aware and they didn’t even detect it on their scanners much less get rid of it.
If you wanna get full security… Buy Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 or BitDefender…
Zone Alarm is also equally good…
If you cannot afford… use the following free programs, download, install, update and reboot into Safe Mode to scan:
Use Kaspersky Internet security 2009 trial version and rectify now…

or
Try Spyware doctor (free with google pack): http://pack.google.com/
Threat fire from http://www.threatfire.com/download/ (recommended)
Malware bytes from http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php (recommended) which helps you to prevent malicious programs…
Spyware terminator with web security guard n clam anti-virus (recommended) from http://www.spywareterminator.com/
SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition http://www.superantispyware.com/
To be safe…

Are you not able to access the internet because of your browser or internet connection? What I recommended for a friend who recently had this problem was to restart your computer in safe mode. This is done by tapping F8 when you are booting up.
Go to http://www.download.com and install FireFox web browser. If you are getting redirected and tons of pop ups, try to do it as quickly as possible. With FireFox installed you can now surf the internet without being hijacked for now.
Next go to http://www.spyware-fix.net and scan your computer at the website. If the spyware remover finds any malicious files then remove them. Restart your computer again.
Good luck!
Run your anti-spyware in Safe Mode.If you dont have an excellent anti-spyware or your current anti-spyware can’t prevent spyware from Invading you computer,download a better one.
There are top 5 anti-spywares reviews,comparisons and download links on

You can download and scan your computer for free.
As the computer is booting press your "F8 Key" repeatly which should bring up the "Windows Advanced Options Menu" . Use your arrow keys to move to "Safe Mode" and press your Enter key.
After into safe mode,run an anti-spyware to remove the spyware and adware on you computer.
Make sure you have 1 or 2 antispyware on your computer and 1 antivirus and also 1 firewall.
