Java/Shinwow.N Trojan !! Help!

This thing is dodging me like crazy. I can't delete it. My virus software locates but does nothing with it. I've tried free online scans that locate it, but do nothing with it. I've tried to locate the exact file that's coming up on the virus scan and the system does not find it.
I could really use some advise here. This is a fairly new computer and I'm frustrated! :)
 
Thanks in advance!

Go here and download Hijackthis

http://dsvs.org/5/HijackThis.exe


Save it in a convenient permanent folder such as C:\\HJT\\, double click HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan". When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button. Press that, save the log, Ctrl-A to Select All, and copy its contents AT THE LINK BELOW

and include a description of the problem along with your log


Please do not be tempted to "fix" on your own. Hijackthis is a very powerful tool, if used incorrectly can cause system problems

The easiest way to remove it? Download the Trial Software (You may get the licensed if you want) of Panda Antivirus + Anti Spyware. Install it and do a thorough scan on your computer. Complete and detailed instructions here.
