in safe mode F8 run malwarebytes anti-malware and SUPERAntispyware,and what they find you
delete it manually. then run ccleaner to clean your pc, and mvregclean, to clean registry.
what mvregclean find you remove because the key is there but not the file ,folder or program.
even you reformat and it finds anything remove dont be afraid.
dont forget when you install this software to update them, and do an update every day
then restore until before you get infected.

viruses is a tough subject...hmmm...first, if u cant manuver cuz everything is slow or screwed up..then try booting in safemode by pressing f8 when restarting..that should give u the speed to dl or run ur anti-virus...avg is a decent anti-virus that is free with live updates...but if u have the money invest in a better 1...also ccleaner is a free cleaner that will dump all unwanted crap like temp internet files..history..caches...cookies...where most viruses lurk anyways..unless u dl'ed something which then it'll be in ur program files...or registry keys..to access regkeys go to start menu and type regedit in search bar...viruses are best deleted manually...but u have to know where they are located/address....if u cant delete the virus becuz of admin priveledges or what ever...press alt,ctrl,and delete at the same time to access the task manager...then go to the processes tab and find ur host...for instance av2009 a rouge antivirus...click on that and end process...then go back and try to delete or uninstall the viral program....if all else fails dl a program called hijackthis...it is also free and very strong..so be very careful what u delete becuz u might need it...hjt brings up everything when u run the scan...so dont just delete everything it brought up...u got pick what u want deleted...ok...gl and i hope this helped u get rid of that annoying crap....and if all else fail u can always delete everything and completely reinstall windows...but thats a last resort..8D

It may be too late. I would suggest getting an External hard drive which you can attach via USB and then find out which files for Cod5 and FarCry you need to back up in order to save your previous games.
Then you will have to wipe it out, and start over. However you will be able to then scan all files backed up and restore to computer.
You can also backup word documents by searching for all *.doc and copy those, if you have mail to back up that depends on your mail program. If Webmail, it's stored on the Internet so no problem, no loss.
There is many how to recover etc. However sometimes just more simple to backup important information and start over.

Its too late. Time to reinstall windows. .
OR
Copy some of the important files onto a HDD. Take the HDD to a MAC and paste it thr or paste the files in a PC with a proper anti-virus like kaspersky ( U should install kaspersky anti-virus after u install windows.
