Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-Aware, CWS Shredder, Microsoft AntiSpyware, and CA Pest Patrol, running those should take care of your problem. Make sure to turn off system restore and run in safe mode. May also want to run a a virus scan.

Just another suggestion here if you have to do a reinstall of the system do not forget to use a utility to wipe the HDD so that nothing remains on it. If you just perform a routine Format it will only write to every 3rd sector and leave the contents of the other 2 sectors intact and possibly allow a reinfection of the system.
