    Let's clear out the programs we've been using to clean up your computer, they are not suitable for general malware removal and could cause damage if launched accidentally. These steps will also help secure the work you have done.
    .
    • Click START then RUN
    • Now type Combofix /u in the runbox
    • Make sure there's a space between Combofix and /u
    • Then hit Enter.
    .
    .
The above procedure will:
  • Delete: ComboFix and its associated files and folders.
  • Reset the clock settings.
  • Hide file extensions, if required.
  • Hide System/Hidden files, if required.
  • Set a new, clean Restore Point.

You may need your product key for this.

Go to How to Tell (Microsoft website) using Internet Explorer (not Firefox or any other browser as they won't work)

  • In the upper left corner click the Validate Windows button.
  • Be patient while the ActiveX loads, do not click on any links.
  • Read the instructions on this page while it's loading. You will be prompted to install - click YES.
  • Enter your product key then click continue
  • When it says "Validation Complete" please click Continue to return to your previous activity

I did what you said and this is what i got

This copy of Windows did not pass genuine validation.
The product key found on this computer is a Volume License Key (VLK) that has been blocked.Call 1-866-PCSAFETY (1-866-727-2338). This phone number is for security-related support and you can explain to them what happened. They should be able to get you a new working key. It is available 24 HOURS a day for the U.S. and Canada.Unfortunatly that didnt work, because they said in order for them to generate a new product key, i have to have the cd, and it has to be one bought in the store.There isn't anything we can do here.well ty for all of your help! what do i do with all of these programs on my computer? which should i keep?
Keep Malwarebytes and SUPERAntiSpyware. Update and run them now and then.

I suggest using WOT - Web of Trust. WOT is a free Internet security addon for your browser. It will keep you safe from online scams, identity theft, spyware, spam, viruses and unreliable shopping sites. WOT warns you before you interact with a risky website. It's easy and it's free.

SpywareBlaster - Secure your Internet Explorer to make it harder for ActiveX programs to run on your computer. Also stop certain cookies from being ADDED to your computer when running Mozilla based browsers like Firefox.

Also see Slow Computer? It May Not Be Malware for free cleaning/maintenance tools to help keep your computer running smooth.ok what about avira antivirus, ccleaner, hijackthis, securitycheck, sniper, and all of the log files?Obviously you want to keep Avira. You can delete or uninstall the others.just do it through add or remove pregrams?Now it is happening again, the ie windows are popping up all over the placeYou need to get a windows key and reinstall the right way. Until you get all of the Windows Updates this will likely keep happening no matter how much we try to clean it.
