My advice: try to download the "Stinger" - and when Stinger finds a trojan or virus, it might delete it. After your scan with Stinger you should get a good antivirus software. You can download AVG Free or AVAST for free - but ONLY one antivirus software on your computer - never more.
Here is the download site for Stinger: http://vil.nai.com/vil/stinger
Good luck!

@Lee T: what you say is nonsense. I am using freeware stuffs for years (free antivirus and free antispy softwares) and I never had any problems with that. You can spend lots of money for "Norton", but every computer freak today knows that "Norton" is crap!

You could try using bullguard antivirus. Its free to try for 2 months with the full version. Its great, really effective. It managed to detect more than 100 trojans in my old computer before, while Norton can't. It practically detects all viruses,adware,malware and delete/repair them. You could download it at www.bullguard.com I bought the licensed version after I used my 2-month trial period. Its not so expensive, worth the buy. Good luck! :)

Go to http://www.mbusbyuk.info/links.html and scroll down the page to free online virus & spyware scans.
Select Panda from the free virus scanners.
When you get to the site, click on Scan My Computer.
When it asks you to select which part of your computer to scan, click on My Computer.
This should fix your problem.
Good Luck.

Make sure you completely uninstall anitvirus programs before you install a new one, have 2 antivirus programs on your system will cause conflict.

i've found this as well
but download and install Avast (free edition ) works well and does not contain any virus or adware
it also works with vista (which I 'm using at the moment)
