Download and run firefox to protect your computer from future spyware attacks and pop ups which are coming in through internet explorer (Trojan downloaders, win32 ).Browser attacks aren't easy to spot because they piggyback on legitimate traffic that doesn't exhibit many obvious warning signs

Answer

well i discovered these virus (small .4.bq,ReVop.a, small.5.y and turown.g) after visiting a music sight. avg, adware and some uninstalling from the add/remove functions of my computer removed all but the small.4.bq Trojan which always made it self present at start up, or slapped me in the face after avg was ran. by the way i beleave this Trojan has something to do with the second thought program. anyways after days of flipping through files i finally discovered in my start up configuration utilities some suspicious exe files called id53.exe, spawner.exe & byq.exe located in my registry (regedit)-HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run . well i found them plus one other suspicious file called "steinstaller" that was part of id53.exe . i am not a pro so i questioned these files with Google they appeared to be some sort of spyware so i deleted them and restarted. "BINGO" they are gone. i hope this helps you guys with this problem, like i said i am not a pro. so good luck.
