Scan in safe mode.

Use AVG Free, nothing else.

What Anti-virus utility are you using? Like Raptor said, run it in Safe Mode (keep tapping F8 after rebooting).

This is what symantec has to say... http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/adware.mediapass.html

      download hijack this, u can set it to remove files upon reboot before they get a chance to run. i had a similar sort of problem.
