help stopping spyware

Sep 16th, 2004

When I startup I go into Task manager and see that there are programs working under my username that shouldn't be working. Hoe do I foind out where they are stored and get rid of them? I think they are causing pop ups or are spying on me. winaudit.exe happens to one of them.
thanks
Andrew
