Answer 1

Oh dear - it looks like you've found out the hard way just how insecure and badly programmed Microsoft Windows is!

Before connecting a Microsoft Windows system to the internet, you must first take as many precaustions as you can.

For now, you can use SUPERAntiSpyware

http://www.superantispyware.com/

FREE edition to clean up your infestation.

Simply download it onto an other computer and copy across using a USB memory stick, CD or direct network connection.

If you want to manually remove it, follow these instructions:

But remember that even though you've cleaned this one out, Microsoft Windows is still vulnerable!

* Make sure you always run up-to-date anti-virus and anti-spyware programs.
* Always install all Microsoft security updates as soon as they come out.
* Ensure you have a properly configured firewall.
* Never use Internet Explorer (use Firefox instead) or MSN Messenger (Use GAIM or Trillian).
* Never download anything you don't understand.
* Never click on any ad banners.
* Never use any "P2P" file sharing programs.
* Consider the upgrade to Linux or Mac OS X to be free of adware / spyware / trojans

You DO NOT have a virus, you DO have a worm. Use the advice given you by throatofwinter. You should be able to clean up a lot of this by using the Live OneCare Full Scan, from the link he gave you. I don't remember all the links he gave, but his advice is good, take it!
