Download something such as Ad-Aware 6.0 at download.com, or any form of malware, adware, spyware removal programs.

Try these steps they may not be exact to the book but they will be similar.

First you will neanti virus this
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
http//www.download.com/Malwarebytes-Ant...
Download, install, update and select Quick Scan.
Remove all infections that it finds after scan

Then you need to go to
start run and then type gpedit.msc
Then go to
User configuration>Control panel>Display and then for the following
Hide desktop tab
Prevent changing wallpaper
Hide appearance tab
Hide screen table tab
(double click) and set to disabled

The ENABLE screen saver

This will get rid of the virus and un hide your desktop tabs. DON'T TRY TO CHANGE WALLPAPER WHEN YOU HAVE THE VIRUS STILL ACTIVE

Malwarebytes http//www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

Once you have removed the infections keep Avast and download Comodo Pro firewall, then switch to Firefox 3 if you are browsing with IE this should stop it returning. (links on my profile)

You have a mailware infection. Download Malwarebytes http//www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php and scan your computer. The real time protection is only available in the paid for version but the removal scan is fully functional.
