Hold the F8 key down while windows boots. Go to safe mode when you get the logon screen. Run the virus checker in safe mode and see if that helps.

If not:
1. Reformat the disk
2. Reinstall windows
3. Use Internet Explorer to go to www.mozilla.org
4. Download Firefox 1.0 and install it. Use it as your browser (no more spyware).
5. Find a program named adaware SE and install it. Run it weekly. As long as you use Firefox as your browser, you should get no adware.
6. Install a good virus protection program.
7. Never click on anything you don't know again.

Good luck.
