I have used every single security system out there to date.
I absolutely love these products:
http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=5756
http://www.superantispyware.com/
If you download these products, and run full system scans with all three it will detect and remove any and all viruses/spyware/adware/malware/scumware
I would highly recommend that you stay away from avast (I don’t like it because of the awful detection rates and security), and spybot search and destroy (I don’t like it because of the difficulty of just running a full system scan.)
