Trojan Horse downloading as a protector and now giving popups
I first noticed a problem when I saw my firewall go off and then My update detection for Windows XP was shut off. Right after that AVG said it found a trojan and I told it to vault it ot something along those lines. After that I noticed I had a I.E. window up when i Haven't opened it in months since i use firefox. Well When i brought it up It came up with a blue screen, which is all I can remember, and it said it was downloading a Anti-virus. I don't rememeber the name of the anti-virus it says it was putting down I freaked and turned off my computer. When I rebooted my computer I scanned with both Spybot and AVG. AVG kept alerting me of the trojan but when it did a official scan It found abosolutly nothing. Spybot found a few things about trojans but didn't do all that much to remove them. So after that I basically searched online for a solution but then I started getting popups especially when I changed the page on google. One of the pop-ups in the webpage link had trojan in it.

So now I'm kinda stuck, I tried downloading that HJT so I can show my log but it told me:
"C:\Document and settings\KELLY\Desktop\HJTsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application"
I Keep trying again but I get the same message.

So I'm sorry I can't show my log but if someone could still help me that would be nice.
