1)start-->>run-->>type regedit and press enter
2)Windows registry page will open.Navigate here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

In right pane, delete winlogon.exe if the data is msole32.exe


Before doing this,turnoff windows restore.

running any anti-spy like avg anti-spyware in safe mode will help remove this malware.

for manual removal instructions try *www.spywareguide.com/spydet_2126_adclicker.html

finish off with ccleaner.
