This is the same malware that attacked me, probably a variant though. Anyways AVG detected only after i ran 4 scans. Kaspersky didnt know anything that was going on. NOD32 gave up. Norton also gave up.
Seems that your only option as the free AVG 8.0. AVG 7.5 will not detect it either. I have tested many Anti viruses. And from my experience i'd recommend you to scan first using AVG 8.0

If nothing is detected restore your system.
Start — Accessories — System tools — System restore. Restore to an earlier date

This is caused by a worm that specialises in putting "banned" notices in Firefox, and onto Orkut and YouTube sites.
Do not format or otherwise mess up your machine. Just look at this site for step by step how to get rid of it.
