He will be staying with me for a while, And I know there is a chance he may want to install something on my computer to track what I look at online, emails etc. I work during the day, so I don't know what will be installed without my knowledge while I'm gone. I've done some research and a lot of these can be installed by a purchaser without your knowledge. That makes me nervous!

It's in the sitebar of my screen, on every page. I understand it's a virus or trojan. Techsupportguy and Geekstogo say to download HijackThis and some other things I've never heard of but not to delete anything, just to copy and paste the logs into their forums. There, the advice stops. Isn't there an antivirus program I can just download to get rid of it? I keep thinking there has to be a simple way to do this.
Thanks for any help you can offer. And a guaranteed Best Answer to anybody who can fix it.
