I think my computer has been infected by a virus if not many viruses. As well there's some something called "PC antispyware" that is reaking havoc on my patients and I'm sure my computer as well. I'm not that savy when it comes to this thing but I'm desperate because the laptop that I'm using is my work computer and could really handle it not being destroyed.

I'm at my wits end, please someone help me get this "PC antispyware" off my computer, I'm downloaded a lot of spyware's and such.

When MBAM finished it's scan it said that I had 220 infected files. When I pushed ok, show results, and remove selected it started doing what I am assuming was removing the infections..... and then my screen turned blue and my computer turned off and restarted.

In the past few days anytime I would try to close PC Antispyware down in my tray my screen would immidiately turn blue and my computer would turn off and restart.

There's writing on the blue screen but the computer turns off to fast for me to read it.

I'm not finding a file in notepad to post.
