Hi all. I recently got very infected with all kinds of trojans and spyware. I think I got rid of most of them but I have one that I have no idea what is. It has taken over my desktop background. It points to an advertising webpage. I tried changing it and it had locked me oput from doing so. I have also tried deleting it and I am locked out of that also. Any ideas on what it is or how I can get rid of it? I have run both my anti-virus and ad-aware and neither program has come up with it.

Thanks for any help
