1. if you had a free AV such as AVG or comodo AV (now included with the firewall) ... uninstall them.. they are worthless.. get Avast or Antivir...

2. Install Spybot... then scan ur pc.. this will not solve all your problems but will help you get rid of the more superficial problems... DO NOT IMMUNIZE YET!

3. Get HijackThis which is a free tool from trend micro.. take a good look at the processes running.. take note of the ones you don't recognize and kill them..do a google search bout the ones u don't recognize

4. Update Avast or antivir or whatever paid antivirus u r using.. Do a full system scan in Safe mode and THEN do a boot-time scan...

5. By now you should have identified the crapware with Hijackthis and removed the virus/trojan/scareware that is fucking ur system.. now run Spybot one more time and immunize your system....

Done..
