Sorry that I dared for actually addressing your problem... Anyway, this is a
newsgroup, not a support forum. Don't expect your questions to be answered
or even the discussion leading to a point you'd like.

about software please(!),what program best and useful.Okie?

Your system is compromised, so no software can't help you. D'Oh, that's trivial!

If you come a site and suddenly,a file down and install on ur
computer,so how do you deal with?

Turn off the computer, boot from an offline media, create a backup and then
start verifying against a well-known safe backup, signature base etc.,
consequently restoring any modification. Then I'd login as admin, create a
new user account and shift over all data. Then I start verifying them in the
background while rebuilding all settings and reinstalling all relevant
programs from trusted media.

What else?

I guess I'd recognize the misbehaviour pretty soon, and start investigating it.

month ago i get xorer virus from a CD-Rom(it is so unluck to me that
that time my antivirus not updated)

Even if it was, that generally wouldn't have stopped it.

Windows ACLs i know alitlle but as i know,if a folder write and delete
protected

That is, the effective write access of the user to the folder is denied.
That's what you mean? Since there's some scenarios where other permissions
might allow write access as well (f.e. being the owner, being able to change
the ACLs, delete child permissions on the upper folder).

then no any program can write data to it,and if a folder can
be write by a program then virus can write to it.

Yes, trivially. The access is enforced by the kernel, and everything has to
pass trough it for accessing hardware resources (other than CPU and RAM)..

Process Monitor i know but so slow down and not a installation monitor
tool ja,even i use it monitor my installation then i cannot control
anything aswell.

You cannot control other than by ACLs and capabilities. If you give write
access somewhere, then the installation is free to write there. if you don't
want this, set proper permissions.

 > Scamware i dont know.

You know, it is security software that tries to implement a broken concept
in a broken way, so actually reduces the security.

Okie,so all your ever advice is not useful for me.

Well, this might be because you didn't ask the proper questions? From what
you wrote it seems like you didn't even flatten and rebuild the system.

You can try Secure Auditor, a new software for unified digital risk
management issues. It contain 30 embedded security tools along with
event log viewers. May be it works for you. Download it from
