I know i know the above answers were not of much use. I’ll give u some recommend. See, anti-spyware programs only get involuntarily installed, if there is a spyware. It force have come without let u know, there is honest chance.
One more thing, avg and avast suck a huge time, overrated shit, won’t do a bit.
1.Download kaspersky 6.0.2.614 internet suite, it’ll find any virus , spyware or adware, and I gaurantee u that(200%). It has a full 30 day trial, so you can shift back your date if u wanna keep it.
2.Download Vundo fixer, it is one of the best adware removers, and is for free..
3. Download spyware doctor. Contact me through email, and i shall tell u version, and give u the registration key.
4.Download webroot spyware remover, it is the best remover of spyware. Email me and i’ll give u the registration key.
Spyware is a problem only for the inexerienced, and when i am there, u don’t need to agonize. Just inform me abou what u plot to do, and i’ll show you the way out.

Most “general-purpose” anti-malware programs such as Norton, AVG, AdAware, etc. can not or will not remove this pest Smitfraud. And most who would tell you such, have no actual factual information. They are austerely touting there favorite anti-virus or anti-spyware as as “cure for everything”.
BTW, SpyLocker often gets installed when someone goes to view a video at a “not-so well-known” website. The website will say that a “special” codec is needed to view it, and questions to download it to you. If you allow the download, you will NOT be downloading a codec, you will really download a trojan called Zlob. The moral is, never allow a website to download “stuff” unless it’s a well known and respected site. And oh yeah, that video would have played just fine without that “special” codec! P2P downloads by programs such as Limewire have also been known to be infected with Spylocked.
Excellent luck!
SpywareLocked is an anti-spyware program which infects your computer with the trojan Zlob. SpywareLocked (also known as SpyLocked) installs in your computer and flashes fake warnings intended to trick you into downloading the full version of SpywareLocked. Apparently, someone that used your computer was tricked into downloading SpywareLocked. Although the process of getting rid of SpyLocked is hard, I found the step by step instructions on how to remove SpyLocked from your computer in the source not more than.
SpywareLocked is a Perilous fake antispyware software and it is update version of SpyLocked. SpywareLocked is a variant of Trojan.Zlob. SpywareLocked show a fake warning message to hold the paid version of SpywareLocked.
SpywareLocked also displays a fake warning alert with flashing icon on your system tray. A Pop up balloon warning messages claiming that your PC is infected. For example : “Critical System Error”, “Your computer is infected”, “System Alert”, “Security Alert”, Trojan-Spy.win32@mx”, “Virus Alert”, “Security Alert” or “Spyware.Cyberlog-X”.
I got all these information from this site and you can also check it. There you can also get the complete manual and Automatic removal.
