Eset should do fine but I always run a good Antimalware program as a second option.

Download the free version of this update and do a quick scan.

MBAM/ Malwarebytes/ Antimalware http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php

Try this,

It should give us more info, and you can then remove the nasty manually.
