      Are you running any anti-virus software?

              I just had the same problem.
              Run Ad-aware if you have it first. Gets rid of the spyware.
              If that dont work, try the following (this is what Dell had me do)

              Go to Start>Run>, type in 'msconfig', under the 'General' tab, look for 'Selective Startup', and uncheck 'Load Startup Items', then click OK.
              That worked for me

                  Do you know what trojan/wirus it is???

                  Either that try system restore before you re-format your harddrive!

                          No one said spybot yet?

                          Use both....

                          and refer to JC's system tools image.

                                          Actually, Search and Destroy is A LOT better of an Adware finder/remover. I have it and all my problems have gone bye bye!

                                                      Go to antivirus.com and do a free online scan. THen get SPYBOT and scan your whole system, and then get Adware and scan again. After this you should be fine
