This thing started running on my other computer, and I never noticed it until it took over the whole thing. Whenever I try to run any program or executable, even command prompt, it comes up with a box containing "Warning, so and so file is infected, would you like to protect?" or something similar. I can't get SB or Malwarebytes to run, and AVG doesn't seem to be doing anything about it. Please help. There are also frequent pop-ups containing messages asking me to purchase a full scan and all that garbage.
On a side note, firefox has managed to open, but the webpages won't display because they're "infected"...
Thank you very much!

Double click on the DDS icon, allow it to run.
A small box will open, with an explaination about the tool. No input is needed, the scan is running.

Follow the instructions that pop up for posting the results.
Close the program window, and delete the program from your desktop.
