That's a rather odd way to request help. Your idea of the best anti-spy software, 
doesn't tell us much either. It could be rogue, for all we know. In fact, don't run 
the SpyHunter program another poster linked you to.

For starters, check Add/Remove for anything suspect you don't recognize as having 
installed yourself. Uninstall it/them if possible, unless you're unsure. 

Clear out all temp folders, etc. for all users with CCleaner. CCleaner.
Before running the scan, click Options and specify any Cookies you don't want removed. 
Uncheck the box that says, "don't remove temp files less than 48 hrs. old. 

Download, install and update MalwareBytes' anti-malware... run a scan..  
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

If you still have issues, register and post on one of the following malware removal 
forums. Before posting, follow their preliminary cleaning steps. *Post on only ONE 
forum.
