Hello,
I do not know where to look for the files. Ususally I take my computer to someone to remove viruses and spyware.
Thanks for any guidance you may give me.
where shall I look for the files and how will I recognize them?

My machine was infected with it, too. It usually comes bundled with something that looks like a codec. Spydawn removal instructions can be found here.
