Your computer is severely infected. At this point either get guided help at one of the specialty forums listed at the link below OR take your machine to a local computer professional OR back up your data and do a clean install of Windows. It is your choice. I don't recommend using BigComputerStore/GeekSquad types of places.http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Speciality_Sites_for_Guided_HelpMS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
