Spybot finds "Smitfraud-C.CoreService" but each attempt to remove it results (after several seconds) in my laptop shutting down and coming back to checkdisk etc. When I run Spybot again, the curse is still there.

Hello.
Please run another scan and when the scan completes, right click on the results list, select "Copy results to clipboard".
Then paste (Ctrl+V) those results into this thread so we can see the path of the detection.

Hi there.
We are now at Spybot-S&D version 1.5
Make sure you update after installation so you have the latest definitions, and then run another scan please.

Thanks again for the follow up. I did as you suggested, removed version 1.4, installed version 1.5, and redid the scan. Same result. Bad guy found, but when running "destroy" the laptop shuts down and reboots to disk check etc., and a new scan reveals that the issue is not resolved.
Here is a copy of the latest scan results :-

Hi there.
The latest version is Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 6u2.Files\Java\jre1.5.0_08\bin\jusched.exe"
file: C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_08\bin\jusched.exe
Vulnerabilities in old Sun Java versions may be partly responsible for Vundo/Winfixer infections, so let's take a different look at this.
Please follow the procedure in this link: "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance) to produce a HJT log.
Then start your own thread in the Malware Removal Forum
Once you have posted in the malware forum, let me know in this topic and I will ask a helper to take a look as soon as available.
Probably later on in the day, early morning, as we live in different time zones.
