I have just got a virus!!! :help :help :help


I was talking to some one on MSN and kept saying to visit some site and gave me a link (It was the same message several times), i clicked on the link and it took me to a page advertising emoticons for messenger. I asked my friend what it was and he didnt know what i was talking about, i told him what he had been saying and he told me he hadnt said that but he thaught he had a virus. I then closed the window and when i went to talk to him or anybody else some letters were coming up wrong, like "P's" were coming out as "G's" and when i pressed space it came out as "psg" or something. I then got off the internet and ran Nortan Antivirus and Spybot. Spybot found nothing, but Nortan found 4 virus's but then my computer started locking itself, i eventually managed to delete the files but then the keyboard wouldn't work at all and when i pressed keys the computer yust beeped. I restarted my computer but now things are worse. It is continually beeping and the keyboard wasnt working but when i ran Nortan Antivirus again it found nothing but the keys began to work again when i closed it, but none of the letters bring out the right thing, they bring up different letters or combinations of letters. It has also been opening and closing some programs, and as type it is going crazy type continually 1's in notepad (which i opened to see if the keyboard was working).

I just did a system restore to a few days ago but still i had problems with the keys so i undid the system restore.

Right now im on a different computer. If anyone could help it would be greatly apreciated.

The only time I've had something similar that Nortons wouldn't remove, I found out it's name, via Nortons I think

Typed it into google and followed one or another uninstall info page.
