Stinks of Spyware to me.

Download and run two programs.

One called [b]Spybot: Search & Destroy[/b] and another one called [b]Lavasoft: Ad-Aware[/b] to rid the spyware from your system.

They can easiy be found using Google.

Heres a link to spybot 1.2. You may have problems with SPYBOT's home site. Download it and scan. When its finished, FIX everything it finds. It will make backups , so don't worry.
I just tried Spybot home {kolla}, couldn't access, maybe this will help.

Unzip, run and hit the ->fix tab to fix all found problems

CWShredder takes advantage of seurity holes in windows so you should install all critical as well as hotfixes available from windows update.
