download free and safe antispyware software such as ad-aware se personal edition from http://www.download.com/Ad-Aware-SE-Personal-Edition/3000-8022_4-10399602.html?tag=lst-0-1
or spycatcher express 2006,
http://www.download.com/SpyCatcher-Express-2006/3000-8022_4-10487201.html?tag=lst-0-1
if you set spycatcher to highest security level, it automatically quarantines spyware, trojans, and other malicious or suspicious software
to avoid this in the future, download mcafee siteadvisor, which tells you which sites are good and bad
