Help with computer virus?

Please please please take my advice. I hate malware and I want to help anyone I can. I had the same trouble. It hijacked my web browser and my desktop. I thought I knew quite a bit about computers but never had to deal with a virus like that. It was Antivirus 2008 it seems to be effecting everyone. Download and run malwarebytes. (www.malwarebytes.org) It's free and it will find everything. I swear by it. Malware is so hard to remove manually so don't even bother. I tried to edit the registry and I ended up missing like 40 files because it worms itself so much. Any other questions just ask. I'd be happy to help.
