Hi Eric,
My advice in this situation is to double check your installed programs
in the control panel, re-run your virusscanner and use all-in-one
spyware tools like Hitman Pro (http://www.hitmanpro) it is a dutch tool
but i highly recommend it when you have trouble with all kinds of spyware.
Cheers,
