Mainpean Stardialer?

Kylertown, PA(Zone 5b)

Adaware detected this on my computer about ten days ago. It set itself up as an alternate account for me to dial into to access the internet. I removed it, but when I paid the phone bill two days ago, there were two one-minute, $.33 phone calls to Lichtenstein, Germany on it. I didn't make them-- I am assuming that this Stardialer did.

Everything I can find out about this latest little endeavor to invade your computer is written mostly in German. My Norton Antivirus is up to date, and did not catch this. Anyone know how this little bugaboo does it's thing? I thought I had my computer set up only to dial my default internet connection, but apparently not. :-(
