This is what I usually do. Get theSophos emergency repair disk. You get the savcli.exe file and then all of the ide's (virus defs) and put it all on a cd. Boot into safemode with command prompt and run this line from the d drive
SAV32CLI -REMOVE -P=C:\REMOVLOG.TXT
Eh...read the whole page that I linked to make sure you understand...but in a nutshell it will remove any files that are infected.
After you do that run malwarebytes.
If this doesn't work, you're prolly gonna have to reload the bitch.

create a boot disk of bartpe (windows live) and make sure you have an updated antivirus and if you want ad-aware as well. run them from the windows live cd and they should be able to remove the virus.
Madness does not always howl. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "Hey, is there room in your head for one more?"
If this happened to me I'd just remove the affected program, enter time machine and restore the program to a time before the infection. In less than 5 minutes.
Edit: I wouldn't remove the program, but just restore it.
haha. You guys are awesome. I think i'm goingto reload the bitch. Everyone I talked to said i'm screw.
Pez, it just keeps searching for a site and then says can not find page. I loaded firefox and it does the same thing. All my active x controls are nuked.
Oh yea try system restore also if you haven't reloaded yet. It should be enabled by default, so you just need to send your system state back to a point before the virii was acquired. I believe it's in start>programs>accessories>system>system restore.
