Spyware help!?

Question

I was on the computer and then it got really slow and it froze.Then my backround changed and turned blue with a yellow rectangle in the middle saying ''Warning!'' ''Spyware detected on your computer!'' and under that it says ''Install an antivirus or spyware remover to clean your computer.''

Right now i am scanning my computer with Norton Antivirus,but i dont know if it will fix the problem because i didnt renew it.

What do i do?Thanks for you help
