Where Can I Get Real Help For Virus's, Malware, and Trojan Horse Infections?

Someone down loaded some kind of trojan horse onto my comp, and it has been getting worse daily. I have tried to run all my spam, spy, and virus ware, yet nothing seems to help. Please anyone know of any real solutions, and for free????

Update:

Thank You For The System Restore Tip, I'll Do That ASAP.

    Turn off your System Restore first (it can reinstall as fast as your repair things).

    Run MSCONFIG and stop all programs. Run diskcleanup to delete all temp files (don't compress).

    Install Microsoft Defender (free) to get rid of the spyware.

    Install AVAST (also free) after uninstalling your virus software.

    Let both do full scans, hopefully that should expose and delete the trojan.
