Definitely spyware/malware, Jimmy ;)

Jackal, you'll find good advice in the "Helping Yourself" topic in the Security Forum section.

For help with a 'mysearch' hijack, please see the following questions at TechTalk:

http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/search.php?searchid=76124

(one of those search results will be this current topic, so you'll have to look in the others :D)

Let us know how you go with it please. I'll move this to the Security Forum, in case you need further assistance after working through the existing topics.
