Hi Ginger,
I'd recommend Spybot - Search & Destroy, and also Ad-Aware by Lavasoft. I prefer Spybot, but it's worth running Ad-Aware after, too; as they sometimes find different things the other doesn't.
Once installed, remember to firstly use their online update feature (/download new reference file feature) to make sure it catches the latest threats.
Any problems, PM me.
