Please help with virus?

Question

My computer just got a virus.

I think its a weak one though.

It changed my background to a blue screen that says

'Warning spyware detected!

Install a spyware remover or virus detector to remove it!'

Im too scared to actually do what it says

i already have zone alarm.

It also took off the tab to change the background picture and removed all my restore points.

What do i do????????

please help!
