Spybot - Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven't intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been "hijacked" (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don't see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

Go to www.trendmicro.com and click on the free online virus scan, you will have to download some files in order to do it but it will help you. Meanwhile lay off restarting your comp because every time you do it will download more virus'

I'm not sure if it will help, but check out my questions on my profile. I had something similar...if not the same thing. I got great answers that helped tremendously.
