okay... my computer got infected with this spyware and its really f-ing me up. i can't get rid of it with my yahoo anti-spy. and the spyware keeps advertising this antispy program that'll get rid of it. but of course its gonna cost an arm and a leg for me to buy their program that'll get rid of their own spyware. everytime i try to do a system restore... it says, "system restore has been turned off by group policy. to turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator." i tried system restore in safe mode but it still won't let me. help me please.

Boot to safe mode, install a program called 'Malware Bytes Anti-Malware', run a full system scan and remove the problems it finds. If that doesn't get rid of everything, install SuperAntiSpyware and do a full system scan.
