Try scanning with spybot http://www.download.com/Spybot-Searc...ml?tag=lst-0-2

after san completes reboot and scan again....

then open up IE then click on tools then check connections to see if you have any extra connections there that should not be there. Delete the ones that should not be there.

Go here and download AVG7 (free antivirus) www.grisoft.com
Go here and download adaware1.05 (free spyware scanner) www.lavasoft.com
Go here and download Microsoft's new spyware scanner microsoft beta
After you have downloaded, installed and updated all of these programs have a read of this thread and consider running your scans in safemode and possibly disabling system restore.
