Answer 1

install kaspersky anti-virus, update it and run a full system scan.restart your machine and it'll be fine..

Answer 2

Have you tried Avast anti-virus the free edition? That should get rid of it. You'll have to download it and then do a full disk scan after reboot. It should find it and then put it in the "chest".  

Answer 3

So sorry you're having problems in Windows. Perhaps consider a MacBook or iMac. There are no trojans, viruses, adware, spyware for the Macs. The bad guys are not writing that stuff for Macs. Your built-in firewall is sufficient.  

Answer 4

What you have is an adware. Install Spybot-Search&Destroy, update its definitions and run a scan on your system.It will remove the infection using its secure shredder.

Answer 5

Go to the link listed below and click on Full Service Scan than following the instructions. It is a virus and spy-ware scanner plus it checks your registry and check your hard drive for cookies etc. It will take 2 hours or more depending on the size of your hard drive. I have used this several times and it works good. Good Luck and have a virus and spy ware free computer soon.
