Unsolicited Web Site/Telephone Charge

[Scott E. White]

C:\WINDOWS\EGHTMLDialer\U03_KEZyahAIIAsQATDB0iBjFf \
Shows up in my Programs directory as an 'Internet Sex
Provider'.
Not my two boys, 12 & 5, my wife nor I have ever
solicited this site. We do not have a clue as to what it
even is. I have recently been charged $28.00 on my
telephone bill for 4 minutes for an overseas call.
1. Anyone know how this could have shown up?
2. Anyone know how I can remove it permanently? I have
tried a number of times.
3. Do I have any recourse?

Scott;
Look for something in Add/Remove Programs.
It could be virus related, but is most likely spyware.
Run an updated virus scan.
Or Scan for Viruses online:

Run Disk Cleanup checking all boxes except "Compress old files"
Check this link:

Run Ad-Aware (free version) or Spybot to check for spyware:

Or
