ok.. first you gotta calm down. well, its very common to get a spyware trojan these days specially with the increasing number of porn sites. The very first thing that you should do now is to get a antivirus software. There is a wide range of antivirus softwares on the market, but not many work, whereas some would be too costy.If you need one immediately, i would suggest AVG. It is the only official free antivirus software on the market which provides updates and firewall. I'm now using it as well and it can remove the toughest trojan. have not had any problem with it. perhaps you can search it in yahoo. After installing the software, you might wanna assure if there is really a trojan in the pc by doing a complete scan. Upon termination of the scanning, results would show if the pc is really infected. If the answer is yes.. then just click on clean... if the virus is too tough, then you are left with no choice but to remove it. now the last thing is to re-scan the pc to ensure against any other viruses. when you are done with that, then congrats.. you are done.. hope it would be usefull

The following tools/steps will help you ensure your safety! In addition, you are in control of what you download and only you can prevent yourself from getting a virus. The following tools will help you protect against it and delete a virus, but remember the fait of your computer is in YOUR Hands.

Ad-Aware Personal SE
Firewall:

Comodo Personal Firewall
------------------------------...
Step-By-Step Method to Ensuring YOUR Security
1) Uninstall ALL Anti-Virus and Firewalls that you may already have. As these, will cause conflicts with the ones you will be suggested to download.
2) Download ALL of the programs above.
3) After download all the programs re-start your computer twice, ensuring that all/most of the programs start on start-up. Ad-Aware, Spybot and Anti Rootkit and A-Squared shouldn't. Make sure the firewall and AntiVirus do though.
4) Update all of the programs. You should do daily updates, and weekly scans. This will most definitly ensure your protection and your system status!
5) Re-Boot into Safe mode. To log into safe mode, "Button-Mash" (simoltaneously hit the key) F8. Then if it gives you a menu, hit "Safe-Mode".
6) After giving it a minute or two to start-up, open up all of the AVG programs. Run them, give them an hour or two as this is their first scan.
7) Save your report if it gives you the option to, and if it does happen to detect a virus, then simply remove it.
8) Open up, A-Squared Free Edition, Ad-Aware, Spybot, SpySweep but, NOT WINDOWS DEFENDER! Run all of these programs and use them to scan. Again, if they detect anything then delete it. If you detected something previously in the AVG Scans then Congratulations! AVG was a great choice for you.
9) Open Windows Defender. Windows Defender is average, and takes a while to scan. Let that scan, and it shouldn't find anything at this point.
10) Congratulations! You have succesfully completed this Anti-Infection Proccess and you are guarenteed safety!

I assume we do not want to spend too much, so try this (it worked on one of my PCs):
1. Stop running programs from websites that are obviously not to be trusted
2. Go Offline for just some time (take out the LAN Cable from the back of your PC to be sure)
3. Restatr your PC.
3. In the Start Menu of your PC, Go to RUN, Type "msconfig" and remove all items from Start Menu that are not necessary.
4. Put the LAN Cable Back and Restart the PC.
5. Download Windows Defender from Microsoft.com and run it.
Of course, I learnt the hard way that even some legit looking sites have some programs that are not be trusted...

I'm going to go way out on a limb here and guess that these are MSN Messages... (grey window message boxes that pop up on your screen).
You will need to use, or learn to use, regedit.exe to edit your registry. It's not as difficult as it sounds.
From the web page instructions (see Source below), for step 2, you run regedit by going to Start -> Run then type in regedit, and click Ok.
You can add new registry entries by using the regedit menu: Edit -> New
Good luck!

Trojan Virus is a bulk of ****.
I hate this one!
You at first have to set up a strong anti-virus software to clean it.
I suggest you:
Norton internet security 2007
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7.0.0.125
Don't you know where to download free full versions?
I will suggest you a site...
