The Hun's yellow pages - trojan

I am having a major problem with this pop up - it tries to connect to the
above site, every time I open IE6. It then uses 100% system resources until
I close it down, which I have to do via Task manager.
I have XP Pro, bang up to date, Zone alarm pro ditto - AVG grisoft Ditto.
Spybot - adsaware none of which can do anything about it. I tried system
restore back to its earliest incarnation - no use.
I even emailed the owner of the site (a page with links to adult sites)
He told me (in a prewritten email) that he was having numerous similar
requests, but that it was nothing to do with him. he had a few suggestions
none of which worked.
As far as I know, this trojan? is having no effect on anything else on my
system.
This is an extract from The Huns email........

"I get more reports like this one and I honestly don't know what's causing
'em. I don't want to force my website on to people. I don't see the reason
why I should do that. People should be able to see my site, but they
shouldn't be forced to. I don't put tools on the web to force my site on
people. I don't mislead search engines to get more traffic. I run an honest
show and still get over 1.8 million visitors every day. I see absolutely no
advantage in trapping people like yourself, that obviously aren't interested
in what my site has to offer."

I would really appreciate any useful suggestions.

Harry.
