I was infected with either a virus or spyware earlier today. I was able to use system restore to get to where I am functioning again but I do not believe all is well. I ran adaware, Norton and spybot. Spybot had some artifacts that it could not remove. Norton found two entries. I have yet to reboot for fear that the malware will reappear. I need desperate help. Thanks in advance for any help.
infected plz help

If you have run all those Anti-Virus programs and picked up a virus entry you should have removed the virus. A good program to run to get rid of any virus's stored in temporary internet files is C cleaner this will also get rid of any old files clogging up your machine it is a free program just search it in google and get the latest version.
