the first thing i've got to say that if you have "many important datas" you should always make backups.

secondly, be careful of what you download, and stop visting those sites (you know the ones i'm talking about) and downloading those kinds of things.

anyway, try booting into safe mode and try a system restore. if that at least changes something you can backup your "important datas" and just format if it's that bad.

btw you have the same problem as here. i googled that so you may be able to find a solution by doing the same thing.

First of all your an idiot.
Second try searching around in the internet to find out what the virus is called, there should be removal steps that you could follow.

You have Trojan.Zlob or Trojan.Vundo or Spyware.FakeSites.
Remove them with spyware doctor or malware bytes. Malwarebytes can be found here. www.malwarebytes.com

It sounds like Spyware. Just delete it from your add/remove programs list. That is how I did it when I had one.

If not, go and download Spybot. Also, Spyware doctor sucks. Never use it. It always says you have so much stuff wrong with your computer. But you don't.

Acutally, you suck. Anyways, here's most of the links for the anti-virus software.
Malware Byte's Anti Malware = www.malwarebytes.com
Spyware Doctor = http://www.pctools.com/spyware-doctor/
Spybot S&D = http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html
HijackThis = www.hijackthis.de
EDIT: And removing spyware with add or remove programs NEVER works. They usually also get into your registrys, or hide somewhere like in your System32 folder.
