you have to get a antivirus program. Something like http://www.trendsecure.com/portal/en-US/free_security_tools/housecall_free_scan.php?WT.cg_n=home_qa_housecall
anti-spyware will NOT work removing a virus (aka trojan).

I have used AVG Anti Virus, Zone Alarm Firewall, Spy-bot Search and Destroy and Ad Aware both spyware killers for years. They are all free for personal use and I have had no trouble with Viruses Trojans etc. AVG does not slow the system down as much as some other products and Zone Alarm allows a lot of personal configuration unlike the Windows Firewall. They can all be downloaded from the following link. http://www.computeractive.co.uk/ On the home page select downloads and then the appropriate category.I also use Windows Defender from the Microsoft site. It is safe to use two anti-spy products but never use more than one A/V as it can cause conflicts. You should run A/V and anti spy weekly. Hope this helps.

If you're talking about removing one from your system, you could simply download AdAware or a similar program. They will scan your system for mailcious programs, such as keyloggers, trojans, and assorted other things.

You can download this from the LavaSoft website.

You may also want to check out Spy Bot - Search and Destroy, which can also be downloaded for free from the Internet.

Use System Restore.
Start/All Programs/Accessories/System Tools/System Restore. Follow the prompts and pick a date closest to todays' that you know you did not have the problem. Use the System restore points not the software distribution dates. This will restore your system to the exact condition it was in on that particular date minus all changes that have been made since.
