Getting rid of a spyware program called "Once Dead"

Hello, my first post to this group:

I've been trying unsuccessfully to rid my machine of the program "Once Dead.exe". I run Windows XP and IE.

I've gone through SpyKiller, bought the program, and I've not been successful in getting rid of this pest. I also run Norton Internet Security 2004.

I see the entry in my registry: HKLM\\..\\Run: [PeakFork] C:\\PROGRA~1\\Rdrview\\Once Dead.exe

I remove the entry, and it comes back every time. Whenever I try to delete the program, it makes IE go to

for my home page. So there must be some other place that is driving this. I can not delete the file itself. I've tried to go back to DOS and use the attrib command, but it also won't let me change the file.

I'm guessing that the booger is in a .dll someplace.

Can anyone offer me a suggestion? Thanks Much, Ray McIntire, West Bend, WI
