I am not in the habit of surfing the net but I have somehow picked up a virus
from a porn site that has installed a program along with an icon on my
computer.
Even Ad-Aware and Spyfighter programs cannot get rid of this hijacker.

It has created a WebsiteViewer Folder which I cannot delete. "Access Denied"
is what I get when I try to delete the folder.

This program is effecting the performance of my computer. For example, it
keeps interrupting the typing of this email.

It shows as 125019.dlr on the record.

The Service Provider for this porn site is identified as Smooth Content Ltd.
UK

Can anyone help with advice?
