Here are three programs that are FREE and will help you get rid of your problems.
AVG Antivirus
AdAware Pro Se
Spybot Search & Destroy
Go to http://www.download.com and do a search on each one of those programs and download and install them. Then run each one and let the programs delete anything they find.
Hope this helps.

try these few...
look for "superantispyware" in Google, and download that. It's pretty good at getting rid of a lot of viruses and spyware/adware. If that doesn't fully clean things out like Drano, then download AVG (formerly Ewido) anti-virus. Do a Google search for that, too. It used to be called Ewido, but the company bought out by AVG, another anti-virus software maker. Also try A2Squared anti-virus software. There are several. Do another Google search for "a2 squared."
Best of luck!

Try AVG or Avast. They both have good ratings and are free for the home computer/ private individual. I personally run AVG and have had no problems. Try Cnet.com to find out how software reviewers have rated them.

It seems that your pc needs cleaning. Consider doing a format and reinstallation.
