I believe my daughter got our PC infected by this from a friends PC while accessing her "My Space" at her friends home from their infected PC. They knew they had a problem, but young people don't think about how easy it can be to spread this stuff. Any assitance will be greatly appreciated!

By the way, I tried running Spy-bot, and got rid of a few problems (I don't know if they were related to this or a previous problem)? I've used Spy-Bot for about 6 months with no recurring trouble until now.

I also tried to remove the Antivirxp08 from the "Add/Remove" area to no avail, I get an error saying "uninstall.exe incurred a problem and must shut down please report this problem" (or something real close to that)
