UPDATE and IMMUNISE (Make sure it reads ZERO unprotected) and SCAN
Then run combofix

Done the Spybot one:
30 items found - all various tracking cookies though, no trojans etc0 -
The best way is to back up your data and reinstall windows nothing beats a clean install but if you dont want to do this, I would clear out old files, run CCleaner, Search and Destroy and do a disk check and disk frag. I use to think the disk check features was useless but I had a laptop that took ages to boot up just by running that it loaded insteadly.0

Give this free online scanner ago - it does not remove any files so is quite safe;
Please do a scan with Kaspersky Online Scanner
Note: If you are using Windows Vista, open your browser by right-clicking on its icon and select 'Run as administrator' to perform this scan.
Click on the Accept button and install any components it needs.- The program will install and then begin downloading the latest definition files.
- After the files have been downloaded on the left side of the page in the Scan section select My Computer
- This will start the program and scan your system.
- The scan will take a while, so be patient and let it run.
- Once the scan is complete, click on View scan report
- Now, click on the Save Report as button.
- Save the file to your desktop.
- Copy and paste that information in your next post.
It will take awhile to run0
