I just had something like that, but it was a different program. I forgot the name of it.
At any rate, I had to reformat my whole machine with the rescue disk. One thing you can try is removing it with anti-virus and/or spyware programs, then before you reboot, use something like System Mechanic to clean out your registry. Sometimes this will prevent the malware from spawning when you reboot. Unfortuantely, it didn't work for me this go around. Reformatting is a pain.
Also, get something like BitDefender. It's less expensive than the 'name brands' (Norton, McAffee) and every bit as good. Think of it as a condom for your computer. :)
