HELP can't delete SPY SHERRIF

[Nancy]

can anyone tell me how to get this off my computer. I
try to delete it then it just reinstalls itself. It has
turned off my firewall and also system restore. I do have
the Microsoft Beta spyware installed but it is not
blocking it. I can't even manually turn on my
firewall. I have run "Hijack This", I have tried
deleting through the registry. It also installs a
connection to dial an international phone number which I
have been able to block. Another file which continually
appears is "maxifiles".

Help im so frustrated

I just got infected with this myself, and this is what I
did.
Uninstall Spy Sheriff
Run the latest free ad-aware in safe mode. I let it get
rid of everything it found.
Then I went into c:/program files/ and deleted the Spy
Sheriff Folder.
Next I deleted all my temporary internet files, and all
my windows temp files.
Reboot.
This got rid of spy sheriff, but I still could not change
my desktop.
I then got this file:

and ran that.
Reboot again.
Everything seems to be working properly now.
Hope this helps.
