There are some tough malwares that neither anti-virus or spyware can't get read of. Removing startup entry may not help. Sometimes it only can be done manually. You probably need to identify processes spawned and what is spawning them. You would need a bit of experience with Windows. Watch your process list in task manager. Try to kill processes that is not part of windows process and see if that process spawns back. If they do, search the file for that name of the process. BEFORE deleting. search all files that has been created within same day in your harddrive and keep the information. Now you need to see you can identify process which spawns the process you killed. It maybe one of other files that was created about same time as other one. When ready, try to kill both processes and delete the files, check if same process comes back again. Some of the malware has spawn process that spawns spawn processes. On nasty case, identifying 2-3 file and deleting them won't help. Not only the process but the file will be regenerated mostly after reboot. Thus identifyng all files that has been created close time as target process/file is important. You will need to remove one by one until it no longer spawns back. Be catious not to delete legit files or kill legit processes.

Changing ur ip address wont help. The reason you are getting that message, is because its advertisement to buy a spyware program from a company. Most likely the same company thats responsible for the spyware on your computer. Alot of times spyware programs dont pick up running dll files that is spyware that wont get picked up, or wont delete. Download a program called Security Task Manager. That program will detect all running task, service, files etc...

Go to control panel>Add & Remove Program and see if you find something similiar installed on your PC that is related to the "Blue Screen" (I mean if you find ahything named similiar to that of the blue screen on your PC or what your spyware detected) and uninstall it from there direct.

Alternatively, you can also download a free spyware from the following link and try to run it to see if it helps you get rid of the blue screen.

Quote from user,
"by riplikethat 3 hours ago
Avast Antivirus and Zone Alarm Pro.. both are perfect for a trouble free PC (if you use net). I used to be a big fan of AVG, but go damn their update servers are so slow (or at least, were when I switched) and there are hardly and major updates to the interface and such. Thanks god Avast is equally good, and they update (mostly adding new features) regularly."
Good luck!
