have you done a scan with any virus protection program if you dont have one Ad-aware 2007 is pretty good theres a free version.

Also i would be to uninstall any programs that are installed automatically when your pc loads that are conncted to the virus's (WinIfixer and Speedmypc, prtsvc.exe or any others that you can see)

also do a windows search for viruss (WinIfixer and Speedmypc, prtsvc.exe ) and remove the files and containing if if there is one

also check in the start menu under programs-startup for any of the virus's.

There's a couple things you can do if you know what the virus is. First, turn on view hidden and system files in explorer and go to the Windows\System folder and delete the file (usually it's in there... if not, run a file search for it).

Also, make sure there's no extra programs in the startup menu.

Last easy thing you can do manually is to go start->run and type "msconfig". Go to the startup tab and uncheck everything that looks suspicious. You can always go back in and re-check it if you turn off something you want.
