right firstly there is no need to swear on the forums. Secondly when you purchased the PC did you get any antivirus/internet security software. if not why not. A virus can enter an unprotected PC within 5 seconds of that PC going online.
try some of these for size and to do a virus/spyware scan.
www.grisoft.com
www.mcafee.com
www.symantec.com
www.lavasoft.com
www.microsoft.com
the first three will enable you to either download a 15 day trial version of their antivirus program or will enable you to do an online scan.
either way get yourself a full and complete antivirus/internet security program:rolleyes:

You can perform an online scan at www.trendmicro.com. Once you get the system clean make sure you install antivirus software, sotware removal software, and recommend a firewall. Free versions are available.
