File name for Smitfraud

Hello All,
Work computer had one of those crappy Smitfraud wallpaper hijacker virus threats (IE: "Your computer has a virus! Install our crappy spyware program NOW!")
Smitfraud isn't too hard to deal with, but since I couldn't find mention of the file I found in the registry anywhere on the net, I thought it might be prudent to have record of it for anyone else to search on.
lphcatdj0ejww.exe
you'll also find:
phcatdj0ejww.bmp
phcatdj0ejww.scr
EDIT: This one is tougher than I thought. I've used half a dozen tools (in safemode) to try to remove this sucker, it just keeps rebuilding the three files above after a restart!
Any help would be appreciated
