MS Media Player related Trojan?

Every time I run MS Media Player the following shortcuts
"Strip Poker", "Home Business", "Sex Drugs", "Education College" and finally "Viagra
Videos" appear on the desktop and becomes the "Home
page" for IE.

I have run Adaware6 repeatedly and all is clear, when I run SpyBot these three registry keys appear and of course after removing them

Possible hijacker: Global settings (Registry change, nothing done)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Styles\User Stylesheet=
Possible hijacker: Global settings (Registry change, nothing done)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Styles\Use My
Stylesheet=W=0
Possible hijacker: User settings (Registry change, nothing done)

oft\Internet Explorer\Styles\User Stylesheet=

and restarting MS Media Player it all starts up again. I have run Norton four times and did
find two entries for the Download.Trojan early this morning.

Date: 4/3/2004, Time: 7:49:24, xxxxxg on XXXXXXXXXXX
The file
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxg\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files\Content.IE5\OZ8FOB4T\in[1].htm
is infected with the Downloader.Trojan virus.
Unable to repair this file.

Date: 4/3/2004, Time: 7:49:26, xxxxxg on XXXXXXXXXX
The file
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxg\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files\Content.IE5\OZ8FOB4T\in[1].htm
is infected with the Downloader.Trojan virus.
Access to the file was denied.

I have completed all of these tasks under SafeMode running W2K SP4 and I am NOT finding any entries for Download.Trojan anywhere else.

Any suggestions? Has anyone else experienced this wasted Saturday?
Thanks,
Gordon

Update, after running every imaginable spyware malware detection tool I could only locate the systeminit file after attempting to start wmplayer, which by the way had suddenly become an ico less 7KB file instead of the original 72KB with the colorwheel ico. So I stole a clean copy from another machine and all appears to be running smoothly. Of course this does NOT resolve the issue until I am satisfied I know WHY it all started. The only virus that was quarantined was the Downloader.Trojan however no additional evidence of infection. The systeminit.exe file was the only oddball file that I could find.

Ok I just finished a reboot and after checking both HijackThis and msconfig and NOT finding systeminit hit the OK and all appears to be working just fine. Now if I could just find the $@%&&*%$$# that put this out I would be at their house with my bill.[cannon]
