Some solutions here from Andy Manchesta:
First try Ewido and see if that can detect the problem
and then try some online Virus scanners and see whats
revealed, This may be connected to Trojan Vundo but you
will need to use some scanners first to get a name for
whatever is causing you problems:

Here's a few incase you have problems with any of them:

Trend Micro

http://housecall.antivirus.com/

Panda

http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/

Bitdefender

http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html

Trojan Scanner

http://www.windowsecurity.com/trojanscan/trojanscan.asp

Kaspersky

http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner

Spyware Scanner

http://www.trendmicro.com/spyware-scan/

Let us know whats found and we will try to help more on
this.

All the best

Andy

Thanks Andre

Adaware SE will detect Winfixer in its next definition
update which should be released in the next day or two,

Winfixer can be removed using the Add/Remove screen but
if the problem is your getting repeated pop ups to
install Winfixer then this is connected to malware but
bundled with alot of junk recently from Adware/Spyware to
Trojans so go with the Malware scanners and see if you
can get a name for whats causing this.

If its Look2me/Aurora/Qoologic/SurfSideKick or
PacerDmedia then it will be detected by Ewido, If its
Trojan Vundo then Trend Micro's Housecall or other Virus
scanners will detect this, Once we know whats causing the
problem then it will make it alot easier to remove it.

Good Luck

Andy
