Anyone know of a site that they trust with help on removing this? I've run AdAware and SpyBot, but it is still managing to stick around.
Thank you,

This is a Trojan that Microsoft Anti-Spyware should take care of.
If you want to avoid MS, try RegRun.

Windows Antispyware is now called Windows Defender. If you are on a PC it is certainly worth the time to install it.
I've also had good success with Steganos. During the free trial it found two trojans that neither AdAware nor SpyBot were able to get rid of. It is certainly worth the money. And if you have a problem now it is certainly with the free trial to get rid of what you need gotten rid of.

Get Steganos for the free trial. Unfortunately, sometimes these trojans are very difficult to remove and you've got to just keep trying different ones.
If I were you, I'd download Steganos, make sure you are updated, then disconnect from the internet while you do a full system scan. Then restart the system before re-connecting.
It might also be of some help to do a Windows update to see if Defender has an update (Defender updates automatically through Windows update, which I think is a bit of a pain in the ass but there you go).
Good luck.
