Remove Webroot and replace with Avast-Anti-Virus
Avast is free and effective, it scans your downloads for viruses (unlike AVG) and also includes anti-rootkit and anti-spyware, it can also run a boot scan.

I use Avast along side Comodo Pro firewall on my Vista computer both are free and have been independently tested and proven to be more effective then Norton or Mcafee.

Windows Vista actually has a built in anti-spyware program known as Windows Defender, which you should be able to easily find just by clicking the start button and typing in Defender.
If this doesn't work though, a combination of both Ad-Aware and Spybot S&D should do the trick for you.
