I cant remember the exact name but it was something like ScanDriver or
similar. I'm quite good at using computers and understand the basics
well, however the methods you described below do sound complicated to
me. If it helps ever since i installed the program, a series of
pop-upwindows (similar in apperance to MS-Dos windows) start when i
load my pc. Not sure if this is related or not but it only started
when i installed the program. Any further help would be greatly
appreciated many thanks
Sorry, the symptoms you are describing can be attributed to lots of
different malware. I suggest you do the normal scanning here:

And then do the Smitfraud removal steps:

See how that goes. Removing malware can be time-consuming and
complicated but if you are "quite good at using computers" then just
follow the instructions and take one step at a time. You can do this
or, if you decide you don't want to bother then take it to a
professional (not the BigStoreUSA type of place). The important thing
is that you have already backed up your data, yes?
