    Delete them, quarantine them when not sure.

    Then clean out you system restore.

    To reset your restore points, please note that you will need to log into your computer with an account
    which has full administrator access. You will know if the account has administrator access because
    you will be able to see the System Restore tab. If the tab is missing, you are logged in under a limited account.

    1. Turn off System Restore.
    On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
    Click Properties.
    Click the System Restore tab.
    Check Turn off System Restore.
    Click Apply, and then click OK.

    2. Reboot.

    3. Turn ON System Restore.
    On the Desktop, right-click My Computer.
    Click Properties.
    Click the System Restore tab.
    UN-Check *Turn off System Restore*.
    Click Apply, and then click OK.

    AVG is free if you would like to pay maybe Nod32.

    Follow the recommendations in Tony Klein's article
    So how did I get infected in the first place?

    And install google toolbar.

    And use firefox
