You are infected with sdbot worm (about 99.9999% sure of that diagnosis).
For removal you can download HijackThis (http://www.tomcoyte.org/hjt) on a known clean machine, put it on a floppy but rename it to hijack.com. Run it and save the log to the floppy....then post it here. Then you will use HJT to kill the startup process for the worm, you will also need to run a reg fix to restore your file associations for exe files, so what version of Windows are you running.

Yes, to make sure you got them all.
Also it would probably be a good idea to purge the Restore folder.
