Nasty Windows Messenger Virus

[d.jones]

I have a virus or something that pop-ups every time I log
on to my computer. I ask if I want to update my windows
messenger. If I click more info, it goes to the following
sight...
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/messenger/whatsnew.asp

Appears to be adult, but I have it blocked. I did have
the following Virus, but I thought they were
fixed/deleted.
Backdoor.Sinit
JS.Exception.Exploit
Java.Nocheat.

I have tried to delet Windows Messenger, but it states
that I can't.

I have also ran Spybot, but no luck in fixing.

Any ideas?
