Sasser.e Adware

[Kenneth]

I am running the Beta version of Microsoft Antispyware.
Each time I reboot my computer I get a message that the
above is trying to install. I instruct the program to
delete it from the computer, which it says that it does,
however the message always comes back the next time. A
file search and other spyware searches cannot locate
anything on the computer with a Sasser name. If anyone
has an idea of how to permanently remove this threat, I
would appreciate it. Thanks!

Resolve is the name for a set of small, downloadable Sophos utilities
designed to remove and undo the changes made by certain viruses, Trojans and
worms. They terminate any virus processes and reset any registry keys that
the virus changed. Existing infections can be cleaned up quickly and easily,
both on individual workstations and over networks with large numbers of
computers.
