teena3bullbats, can you boot into safe mode? Sorta round-about way to get there, but... Have a friend (on another machine) download 'Superantispyware' (free @: http://www.superantispyware.com/) and burn it to disk.
Run it in safe mode and it should get rid of your nasty. There may well be a simpler way, but I don't know it.
HTH.
