Not much can help, the only way is uninstall it and reinstall with Norton Anti Virus or Mozilla. Try to look for free-download or 30days free trial on the internet. There are many available on the internet.

It is very complicated to fully take out the spyware or virus that got into the computer, especially if you don't know much about computers. The best option would be to back up your files on a hardisk and just reinstall the operating system. This will make your computer like brand new and then just reinstall all the programs you have as well as the data that you back up on the harddrive.

AVG is good in that you get notifications daily in your inbox about scans and updates so you know the status of your system. I have heard so many good things about AVG and it is an easy download.
