    Been hit... with something!

    I had a party here a few weeks ago and my computer was open for use. In other words I left it on so people could use it if they liked. Proved to be a hit because most party-goers spent the night on Youtube with Gangnam style. Anyway, I dunno what's happened and I think some noob got spyware on my computer!
    There's this thing which keep highlighting stuff and popping up. It's called savings sidekick?
    I cant get rid of it for some reason, will i have to reinstall windows now?

    thanks.

      I'm trying spybot S&D now. I'll see what happens after a scan.

          It was a brand spanking new Acer all-in-one Core i5 PC as well! Well at least the touchscreen got great attention that night.
