hi, i'm new here so i really don't know what to do...

i think i have a virus or something, because recently my computer has been REALLY slow on the internet
and programs and stuff

and i have found a bunch of folders in some of my music folders and WINDOWS folders filled with program cracks/keygens that i didn't download. i mean like hundreds of them. every time i delete them they just come back in like 5 minutes.
spybot always detects tracking cookies and deletes them, but then i rerun it and its the same thing over and over again..
one of the folders with all the cracks in it was called "SoftwareDistribution" and it has "downloads" in it, which i never downloaded, dont even know what SoftwareDistribution is....and the downloads are all those stupid cracks again!

theres also something called "IME"

there is also another USER listed, called MAIN. i try to delete it because it has nothing but empty folders in it (i deleted some cracks from there too) but it wont delete, says that it is in use or something by some program.

hijackthis only comes up like google stuff that i want on there still, didnt really have to remove anything from there so..

please help :(
