Description:
Banload.bho pretends to be a harmless file like a pdf to get executed. It runs in background and installs a browser helper object (BHO) to control the users Internet usage. Banload.bho also disables the least-privilege user account (LUA) to enable installation of other malware or Trojan horse components using the current users privileges.
Removal Instructions:

Please use Windows Explorer or another file manager of your choice to locate and delete these files.

The file at "<$APPDATA>\<$ENV(BanloadFFpraefix)>.txt".
The file at "<$APPDATA>\klqwis8h.txt".
You may need to move the file "<$PROGRAMFILES>\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.dll" to "<$PROGRAMFILES>\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe".
Make sure you set your file manager to display hidden and system files. If Banload.bho uses rootkit technologies, use our RootAlyzer (http://forums.spybot.info/downloads.php?id=8) or our Total Commander anti-rootkit plugins (http://forums.spybot.info/downloads.php?id=3).
You will have to use a global search for files without a name specified. Be extra careful, because just the name might not be enough to identify files!
