Have you tried using Ad-aware?

[Master-Of-Fungus-Foo-D]

no.. i guess ill look it up thx

Ad-aware is a good program (free) for getting rid of cookies from advertisers, but it wont get rid of a virus.

You can look up the names of the virus' on the web. A lot of the anti-virus sites will have instructions on how to manually remove them, but it can be a real pain.

You can download a free antivirus prog here:

I have been told its better than norton, not that I think norton is the best thing in the world but its gotta be worth a try.

Also you can download the anti spybot prog from microsoft:
