I had the same problem It's CWS hijack (cool Web Search) Run Ad Ware 6 *free from the web* and it will show you all the spyware that's on the computer at the end will allow you to delete them.  Then this site a free shredder that will actually get rid of the spyware program that's hiding on the computer..AdWare will show the files it's stored. http://www.spywareinfo.com/articles/cws/
Hope this helps

i think i have a virus on my computer, but Im not sure which one it is, because it has infected MSN Messenger, but it's not the MSN Messenger virus, because you have to download the new version of it to get that virus, does anyone have any suggestions on which virus it could be.....thank's...

There is a free file at http://www.techtv.com/callforhelp/ It is called AVG6.0 Anti Virus System.  I tried just the free download and it captures any virus on your computer and puts it in a vault so it cannot do any more harm.  I find it very useful.  Hope this can help.  I watch the TV show Call for help and tech TV every chance I get.  A cool learning show.
