Orkut Virus in my friend's computer?

My friend got the orkut virus (the one which dosen't let you go to orkut.com, makes a funny face on the screen and laughs like 'muhhhhaaaaaaaaa') and he wants me to remove it.



I DO NOT want a long list of antivirus and antispyware programs. Just one Free software WHICH is KNOWN to work with this particular virus.



Thanks
