Angry Virus Alert...my a$$

I am at a friends place and I found a resident prog with a taskbar icon that points you here.

http://www.spywarequake.co

and a "security" popup linking several other sites.

I am so pissed and I wish these sites would be sent into oblivion !!!

PLS do not visit the above site ! One letter missing for obvious reason !

Thing is that the registry key after deletion is in a second back. I turned off the SR service and still no go. The "mssearchnet"aplication is running in background and after a manual stop in 1 second is restarted ( Any ideeas?

What would happen if you created a batch file which after deleting the registry entrys looped back again to the beginning and kept deleting the troublesome files?

Not sure about this really
