The freebie tool will tell you most of the dodgyness, but won't remove it unless you buy the full version. I used a combo of spybot S&D and the tool mentioned there to find most of the suckers, and then did the manual plucking of files from the reg and sys32 folder to make sure it couldn't reinstall itself.
Because it was sly enough to hide and reinstall itself on rebooting...
good luck, and I hope that my earlier pain means yours will now be much, much shorter.
