i did both of those and the problems are stil there. since i do have my docs backed up, should i just reformat?

The computer can probably be cleaned. However, since you are infected with some kind of trojan, perhaps a backdoor, you should reformat if you use your computer for online banking, business purposes, or storing sensitive or very personal information.

You need to be careful about backing up Word documents now, though, if you decide to reformat. They can harbor malicious macros. If you need to back up Word documents, you should just copy the text over into Notepad and back it up as a text file.

Please let me know what you decide to do.

Regards
