Reinstall Windows.

And in the future use a virus scanner, don't run Internet Explorer, or maybe even just run Linux or Mac OS X instead

okay, first go the way bottom of your facebook page. click on "help". then click on "warnings!". It will be on a list. Then click "facebook security". there is stuff on there that should help you. If that doesnt work, try this: from start menu go to "programs", then "accesories" then "system tools" then to "system restore". (follow instructions) ... that will restore your computer back to an earlier date. Also, change your password on facebook immediately!! My computer is clean now. good luck! it sucks bad! but it can be cleaned. i accept email, if you need anymore help, let me know!
