How do I get Spybot to run after I'm infected?

After accidentally hitting a link, my XP PC became infected with Antivirus 2009. I'm connected now via a UNIX laptop because the hijack code prevents me from connecting with the Spybot URL.

It took some finagling to get Spybot installed, including removing a malware registry entry but it's installed now. The hijack prevention part is running, but the "Run" command when right-clicking the SB icon is grayed out so it prevents me from running a scan so I can remove the hijack code from the browser.

I'm new to this but didn't see a forum entry for this same situation. Any ideas?
 
Hi

Download DDS and save it to your desktop.

Disable any script blocker, and then double click dds.scr to run the tool.

* When done, DDS.txt will open.
* Click Yes at the next prompt for Optional Scan.
* Save both reports to your desktop.

Post back the contents of DDS.txt and Attach.txt
