    Ok powerslam, you're clean now :)

    Now that you're clean, here are some tips how to stay clean.

    -> Stand Up and Be Counted, Malware Complaints -> http://www.malwarecomplaints.info
    The site offers people who have been (or are) victims of malware the opportunity to document their story and, in that way, launch a complaint against the malware and the makers of the malware.

    -> Clear your system restore -> http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/tips/mcgill1.mspx
    This will clear the system restore folders from possible malware that was left behind during the cleaning process. Remember to create a new restore point after the cleaning.

    -> Use CCleaner -> http://www.ccleaner.com
    Download and install CCleaner. Clean your registry and temporary files with it regularly.

    -> Use Ad-Aware -> http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/?showtutorial=48
    Download and install Ad-Aware. Update it and scan your computer regularly with it.

    -> Use Ewido -> http://www.ewido.net/en
    Download and install Ewido. Update it and scan your computer regularly with it.

    -> Install SpywareBlaster -> http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
    SpywareBlaster will prevent spyware from being installed to your computer.

    -> Install MVPS Hosts file -> http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm
    This prevents your computer from connecting to harmful sites.

    -> Change your browser to Firefox -> http://www.mozilla.org
    Firefox is faster, safer and quicker browser than Internet Explorer.

    -> Keep your systen up-to-date -> http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
    Visit Windows Update regularly.

    -> Keep your antivirus and firewall up-to-date
    Scan your computer regularly with your antivirus.

    -> Read this article by TonyKlein -> http://castlecops.com/postlite7736-.html
    So how did I get infected in the first place?

    Stay clean ;)
