Smart-Securaty hijacker on my desktop!!!

[Big Chudeezy]

hey there, people, I have a problem with some sort of hijacker that took over my desktop. its name, Smart-Securaty. Ive tried a whole bunch of things that do not seem to work and they are as follow: Spybot sd, BHO demon, CWShredder. Ad-Aware freezes in the middle of a search and I also have Hijack this but I dont know who to send the list that they give me to. if someone could help me out I would appreciate it, thanks.

I had the same problem - ran ad-aware it didn't find anything ran "spybot search and destroy" it found it. I deleted the spyware but  it came back.

I then went to Control Panel - Display - Web and there was a check box with "security" ticked (I assume a reference to smart security). I unchecked this and then ran Microsoft Antispyware this also found it and this time it deleted it - the hijacked screen did not reappear.

There was also an html file called desktop.html in C:\windows\web which I deleted as this seemed to be the page that was being loaded by the spyware.
