    It's a dialer, and there's likely another component of it-- that Spybot is not deleting-- that is reinstalling it, either via a registry or win.ini run entry. If you go Start -> Run -> and type sysedit, you can look at win.ini and see if there are any suspicious "run=" entries. Identifying similar in the Windows registry will be a little tougher.
