I have removed this spyware from a number of systems this week.  Even after
running spyware removal tools and checking startup registry keys I might
also check for c:\windows\system32\msconfig32.exe which added the spyware
back into the startup and or reinstalled it.  This portion was not detected
nor removed by adaware or spybot.

It looks like another version of the Golden Palace Casino downloader worm.
Yuck.
