Malwarebytes: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php





SuperantiSpyware: http://www.superantispyware.com/download...





Avast Anti-Virus: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.ht...





To protect your PC in the future you'll need to install anti-virus software and a firewall, id recommend using Avast anti-virus and Comodo firewall both are very effective and completely free, you should also switch to Firefox 3 if you are browsing with Internet Explorer as its much safer and a lot easier to use.

Remember never download anything thats recommend by a pop-up
go to malwarebytes.org and download the free version and run this. I have been very successful with getting rid of just about everything with this program. Also if you don't have virus protection download AVG free or Avast and run that afterward.
Yeah malwarebytes did it for meee
