It says it came from m.www.yahoo.com and i need this computer for school. anyway so ive been running all these programs and bla bla bla but it wont actually let me run any antispyware, when i hit run some black box pops up and thats as far as my installing goes.

Welcome to the forum Krissu0  Cheesy
 
Let's not throw out the baby yet.  The online scanner of Kaspersky is great for identifying infections; however, it does not remove anything that it finds.  Please do the following:
 
1.  Go to the link below and run the BitDefender online scanner.  It will quarantine what it finds.  
 
http://www.bitdefender.com/scanner/online/free.html
 
-  Before starting the scanner, temporarily disable any security programs that you have on your system.  DO NOT disable your software firewall.  Also close down as many programs as you can (the icons next to the system clock in the notification tray.)
 
-  After BitDefender is completed scanning/quarantining, post the BitDefender scan log back here for me to examine.
 
-  Reboot your computer
 
2.  Download/install Hijackthis on your system per the instructions in the link below.  
 
http://www.misec.net/forum/board/FAQ/1163329424
 
-  Run a Hijackthis scan and post the HJT log back here.

Did you use Internet Explorer browser to access the Bit Defender scanner?  It needs to download/install an ActiveX file in order to run the Bit Defender scan.

I think you are doing the wrong thing when you go to the Hijackthis webpage as per the Hijackthis installation link provided in the procedure I asked you to use.  You do not want to run the TrendMicro House Call scanner.  You want to download and install the Hijackthis file.  Click on the hot button that says "Download".  Save the Hijackthis download on your desktop.  Then double click on the Hijackthis Installer icon on your desktop and let it install Hijackthis.  Once Hijackthis is installed, you can delete the Hijackthis Installer file/icon from your desktop.
 
Once Hijackthis is installed, run a Hijackthis scan and post the scan log back here.

"iexplore.exe" is the main executable of the Internet Explorer browser from Mircosoft. It is considered a part of the Windows operating system. Check the security settings for this program to minimize the risk when you are surfing.
