Trojans are rarely easy to get rid of. I did come across these instructions though

Trojan.Win32.Obfuscated.gx Automatic Removal Instructions

This automatic removal method is for non-techie computer users. If you’re too lazy to learn about spyware removal or how to access sensitive files in your computer, then this is the method for you.
Before you start: Print or bookmark these instructions because you’ll have to reboot into Safe Mode. Also back up your computer in case you make a mistake.
  1. Download and save SmitfraudFix to your desktop.
  2. Restart your computer in Safe Mode (how to do safe mode). Once the
    desktop appears, double click on the SmitFraudfix.exe on your desktop.
  3. After the credits screen, you’ll see a menu as shown in the image below.
    Select the option number 2, which is ‘Clean (safe mode recommended)’, and then
    press Enter to delete infect files.
  4. SmitfraudFix will begin cleaning your computer and take a series of cleanup
    processes. When the process is over, it will automatically begin the Disk
    Cleanup
    program. View the ‘Disk Cleanup program’ image below.
  5. Once the Disk Cleanup program is complete, you will be prompted with the
    message ‘Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry’. Answer Y (Yes)
    and hit Enter. Reboot your computer.
  6. SmitfraudFix will now check if wininet.dll is infected. SmitfraudFix will
    ask you whether to replace the infected file (if there’s any) ‘Replace infected
    file?’
    Answer by typing Y (Yes) and hit Enter.
  7. Reboot your computer to complete the cleaning process.
  8. After reboot, a Notepad screen may appear containing a log of all the files
    removed from your computer. If it doesn’t appear, a file will be created called
    rapport.txt in the root of your drive, (Local Disk C:).
  9. Restart your computer in Safe Mode (how to do safe mode).
  10. Go to C:\Windows\Temp, click Edit, click Select All, press DELETE, and then
    click Yes to confirm that you want all the items to go to the Recycle Bin.
  11. Go to C:\Documents and Settings\[LISTED USER]\Local Settings\Temp,
    click Edit, click Select All, press DELETE, and then click Yes to confirm that
    you want all the items to go to the Recycle Bin.
  12. Reboot your computer back to normal mode. Go to Windows Update and download
    all critical updates.

Just google it and find a site with the fix. Should be pretty easy.

You watching too much porn online :lol:

Just so you know..if you use FireFox as your browser instead of IE,you won't be infected by any trojans.

Then through their addons you can even improve your browser security
by installing few recommended plug ins to secure your surfing even further.
