Having some problems with spyware, possible trojan

[HighDarkTemplar]

Think it may be a trojan or something. Snuck into my system. Anyone who knows how to remove that little pest? Tried spybot, ad-aware, ms antispyware, and a little hijackthis. I don't have any idea about what it is called. Only thing is that it says Virus Alert! and a popup with critical system error and get some malware and antivirus protection.

Also got some trojan as shown in picture annoyance3, it says download adware punisher. Ticks me off, any idea about how to remove it?

Best Regards

trojans are usually detected by antivirus software. run a full antivirus scan too.

Can't delete. Think it's Puper, or pepop according to symantec :-)

search you pc for puper.dll which causes the infection. remove manually. if that doesn't work, use unlocker to kill its process(es). good luck!

This trojan is a real bugger, it is very difficult to get rid of you should go to this site http://noahdfear.geekstogo.com/ and download smitrem it is very good at removing this type of infection.
