The Tools you have used, SpyBot etc are malaware tools, they are not
designed to find / clean viruses
You need;
1) a proper firewall (win firewall stops only incoming)
2) a decent AV solution eg Kaspersky
You also need to configure any firewall properly otherwise you will be open
to all sorts of nasties
Any Firewall popups/msgs are given for a purpose, ignore or incorrectly
allow, will open your sys to infection, which seems what you have done.
You might try an online scan at one or two eg Symantec / McAfee / Trend /
Kaspersky
Ensure you have turned off sys restore, untill your sys is clean.
You might also try the Win sys File checker.

Nor SpyBot, nor Ewido, nor Microsoft AntiSpyware can't find any virusesand
anymore. I have been infected for 2 days now, after using so much guide
advices. The viruses seems to have been wiped out. The last Hacked Toolsthat
Panda ActiveScan Pro found, was SmitEm (or something in the lines, kindalike
SmitFraud) I downloaded that utility from a guide to get rid of virusesand
SpyWareQuake. but it was listed as a Hacking Tool, so I dunno :/were:
Oh by the way, some names of the viruses and malware that infected me
"PROGRAMS"
Torjan Downloader, Behaveslike Torjandownloader, VCoded, SpyWareQuake,
SpyAxe, Need2Find, Tracking Cookies ect...
No more threat has been found by any of the scanners, but my computer is
still sloooooow and oh, since I have been infected the button "PROGRAMS"
doesn't work anymore (as in when you push the "START" button, the
button won't open anymore, you know when you push that button you getacces
for example NERO, ACESSORIES ect... and much of the things you haveinstalled
so far)any
So my question is, am I still infected even though no virus scanners find
any? And how can I protect myself better against threats, whitout having
annoying firewall pop-ups every time I do something? Because when I got
infected my main firewall was shut off and I had no anti-virus on (>_<)
