1. Go into Safe Mode and run your antivirus software from there.
Restart your computer to get to Safe Mode:
>>>As soon as you see the system trying to load (it will probably be black and white)
>>>and before Windows tries to load,
>>>press and hold the F8 key.
>>>Continue holding it down until you see a black and white DOS menu. I think Safe Mode is F3.
run your antivirus software
EXIT to Windows

Try downloading and installing SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition from CNET Download website.
I use this at least once a month to get rid of adware stuff.

Are you sure it's not some scam to get you to part with your money unnecessarily? If you have good protection (anti-virus and anti-spyware) then you should be fine.
If you don't, you should download or buy something pretty quick!
I recommend ad-aware and 'spybot search and destroy'. You also need good anti-virus. AVG is free for personal use.
