Download a anti-virus proggie demo like F-Prot, McAfee or Norton, update it (there's usually auto-update, it downloads newest virus definitions automatic) and scan your whole system.

I found it out and manually deleted it then had Mcaffee run a full virus scan and found only one infected FILE.......aceshigh.exe....
......not it was some mIRC file and i think it was a loose mIRC virus that did this. I forgot to kill the viruss in my mIRC app.
