ugh... i had a problem similair to this once. It's one of those frigging stupid adware programs that auto install themselves as soon as you go to a website >_O;;
Have you checked the "Add/Remove Programs" thingy in your Control Panel for some application you don't recognise? Sometimes they turn up there for some weird reason and allows you to un-install them. I know that sounds stupid, but sometimes it works.
If not then it's probably installed as an internet plugin. If you go to "C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files" you might be able to locate it here. Right click the plugin if it is, and click on "Remove".
If it isn't there either, then... i use to know i site which specialised in just about every possible one, but i've lost the address... =.=;;
I'm really surprised your Ad-Aware program failed to remove it. I guess you could try alternative ad-remove programs that are out there, can't really suggest any myself. Never needed one =P

I hate those damn spywares. I found at least 100 dialers in my comp. There used to be 2000. I cleaned them all out.
Spyware and Ad's and stuff also slow down you net speed. So please remove them after a while.
