A lot of people will dirext you towards AVG antivirus, and that's good, but there is one free program that's better, called Avast. That will protect you against viruses. As for spyware and adware, download Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware. Finally, a good firewall is ZoneAlarm. All of these are free, and effective. Just Google them, and the rest is self-explanatory.

Try installing the Yahoo! toolbar, and run the built-in spyware removal program. Also, make sure you have WindowsXP configured to receive automatic updates from Microsoft. Microsoft runs a spyware removal program every month.

Go to www.Download.com and get Ad-aware and run that.
Then go back to Download.com and get SpyBot Search & Destroy.
You might have to run these again, when you are in SAFE MODE. Use the F8 key when you are restarting, and pick safe mode from the menu.
