My IE6 browser keeps getting re-diretced by a subtle registry change to

strange porn sites. I have tried everything in terms of spyware
detectors/deleters such as AdAware, Spybot, Spyware Doctor even used
Trend Micros dedicated spyware software. Trend identifies the offending

Begin2Search, deletes it but somehow it comes back and starts
re-directing my browser again.
Does anyone have any idea how to get rid of this Begin2Search
spyware/malware ONCE AND FOR ALL?
