I need help getting a free spyware Please help rid these viruses?How did this happen?

I have windows Vista. I have contracted something called

trojan viruses. It has contaminated my computer with tons of porn Very serious porn!

In addition I was tricked into losing my Norton and Spyroot by companies using pop-ups that looked almost identical to the real icons. I keep getting pop-ups constantly telling me about the threat and that my spyware is out of date. PLEASE can someone help me fix this serious problem? I need step by step instruction on what to do. I was once told of a free spyware from Germany called I think "firefox?

Please help...PLEASE

    I would go to www.bitdefender.com and try out BitDefender Total Security 2008! You will see that it will take care of most of your problems. Firefox is not a torjan remover or anything of the sort... its a web browser that is 100x better than Internet Explorer. Download firefox as well and start using that as your browser. Doing all that should do the trick but if you still have the virus/torjan then you probably end up formating or tracking down the virus and removing it your self.

    The German antivirus is called Avira antivir. Its free and its the best. As for spyware get Spyware Terminator as it works in realtime. You can get them at snapfiles.com/freeware. Good Luck

    Firefox is a web browser. As for your viruses Reinstall both Norton and Spyroot, both very good programs, and run them. then turn on popup blocker. If all else fails reformat your drive.
