Do these files have a name or or they just random ...and where are you finding them? What operating system are you using and what spyware removers are you using ?

dl65  It sounds like your system has been hijacked.

As above, what were the results of your malware/spyware scans?  Ad Aware, Norton, etc.)?

DellIm using panda antivirus protection, and when i do a full computer scan iom told there is nothing wrong.
The files all have different names, but when i delete them they come back with the same names they had, all i know is that they are .exe files.
PLEASE HELPThere are nasties other than virii. Use ADAWARE, SPYBOT and Ewido (all free, just google for them) and see what you find.try to use this army of bots on your computer, some are free, for some you have to pay, but, you can always download a free trail (and al programs are safe.
