First, since this seems to be some sort of trojan, a virus scanner won't help much. Second, which version of
ZoneAlarm are you using? Is it up-to-date?
I don't recommend
McAfee or
Norton as virus checkers any more; the first works poorly and the second is a resource hog. Currently, I recommend
Grisoft AVG, since it's updated regularly, very effective, and
free for personal use.
I would also cross-check for spyware using
Spybot Search & Destroy. Check http://Security.Kolla.de for news, forums, and download links. You might ask your question there, as well.
