Well, my computer is now a cesspool of viruses. It's nothing really critical. It turns off and reboots as normal. But whenever I get home after leaving it on all day, I'm treated to about 87 pop-ups. Nothing works. What are some good, possibly free/trial antivirus/antispyware programs I can use to eliminate (or at least lessen) the infestation?

complete spyware/popup rescue kit
AVG (as above) - antivirus
Lavasoft Ad-aware (also as above) - antispyware
BHODemon - some stubborn programs require this for removal, believe it or not a installed Browser Helper Object can register itself to startup with explorer.exe
ProcessExplorerNT (from Sysinternals) - kicks task manager's ass, can tell you what programs are starting the svchost.exe's
Autoruns (from Sysinternals) - control what programs run on startup and discover where they are at
Firefox 2 and StartupMonitor - so this shit won't happen to you again!
