Unplug the cord connection from your pc to the modem or router. Run Spy Sweeper & your antivirus in (1) Safe mode and save results, and (2) repeat in normal mode. Intrusive malware needs to be cleaned right away. (I'm presuming all your AV & Spy Sweeper hasve the latest definitions)..
Once the system is clean, reconnect the modem/router connection.
Make very sure your system does not have malware.
See <http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware>
Sysclean would be a good first run for virus check. Just be sure to also run other spyware / malware checks.
The cleanup sequence I tend to follow is: Coolweb Shredder first, followed by Adaware, SYSCLEAN, and Antivirus check with current updates.

tighten security of your firewall
Update the viris scanner, get trial versions of some other virus
scanners, get spybot and adaware.
Unplug from the internet as soon as possible.
run all the antivirus stuff you can lay your hands on
run spybot and adaware.
More info needed
