I had this same problem. I recommend these two products (Yes they are free )
1) AVG Antispyware.
2) Superantispyware.
These two will make your computer like new again.
Do your scan in safe mode.

Bottom line is this: Even if you managed to remove the infection this time, if you don’t change the internet surfing habits that got you infected in the first place, you will eventually get infected again. You will also find that if you are a high-risk internet surfer, that you would do well if you only used top-tier security products instead of going cheap and relying on freeware.
All the knowledge to beat this problem has been hashed and rehashed over and over and over. Do you want to just squeak by this time, or do you want to beat the problem once and for all.
As for the best antispyware programs, some were already mentioned, and some I would stay away from.
Trying to learn in 5 minutes what seasoned PC Techs take years to learn is futile, especially if you don’t plan on becoming a PC Tech. Everybody is looking for a program that will solve their problem. The fact is that the programs do not find and remove everything. Some malware is only found manually through the experience gained at doing this for living on a daily basis.
With that said, any program recommendations that appear to help are only a bandaid. You don’t don’t know what you don’t know, and if you are really patient enough to read through all these comments to fix the problem yourself, you should invest some of this time to learn how to prevent it in the first place.
So just pay a tech to do it for you and pick his brain.
