I am thinking I got some spy ware from someones page on myspace. When ever I reformat my computer I uninstall the virus projection and all of the other and us my cables suite. Well it is unable to get rid of the spyware. I try going alt-ctrl-del, but it says task manager has been disabled by your administrator. Well I am the administrator on the account. Also ballons in the bottom say things about you have a trojan, or detected spyware. The ballon then links a site to "top rated spyware removers" How can I get things back to normal where I can go to my control panal and get rid of their garbage?

You could try downloading Spybot Search and Destroy, but I'm not sure if this will completely fix the problem. You may have more going on than just spyware. Do you have a Good AV??? You might also try AVG AV. See Links for both below.

Spyware terminator seems to be pretty good. Could you not try system restore, pick a time before your computer started to act up

I hope I don't confuse things too much here, but the applications mentioned above are barely adequate... Well, that means that they are NOT adequate.
The exception is AdAware, but NOT the latest version... Last effective version of AdAware is SE Professional build 1.06r1 Please trust what I am about to suggest to you... Click on the link > Nod32 - Free Virus Scan: Use ESET's Online Antivirus Scanner which you will find in my signature below. It is safe and you can trust it ! It scans AND removes... It is free. A limited time period trial version is also available. Also, remember that the vast majority of 'free' protection programs that you can download and install are totally inadequate and are very much cut-down versions with many functions disabled. Believing that you are protected is, in many cases, worse than having no protection at all.

First Off Urs.. You Look Stunning In Green LOL. I Think You have several valid Points, but as far as the Freeware goes??? I will tell you what I run, and I know You Dislike Norton, because I have read several Thousand Threads and Posts, and seems to me You Hate Norton. Correct Me if I'm wrong. I run NIS08, Norton Antibot, Spybot S&D.. Free, AdAware 07, and SpywareBlaster.. Free (I feel is a necessity that no one speaks about). I also use Ccleaner several times a week. I ran the Scan that you so highly recommend and the results speak for themselves.
Not Disagreeing with you necesseraly, but just giving a different prospective. See Below for the Results after the Scan.
