If you don't have administrator rights over your pc you may not be able to access things like system restore or download programs like adaware.

unless your gonna let someone tell you what to delete from a hijackthis log,dont mess with that program unless you know what to delete from your registry...
if you go deleting everything that hijackthis shows as bad entrieswell your gonna find some of your software wont work anymore...shows alot of "false positives" i guess you could say...

if you go into msconfig(system configuration utility) you can uncheck that exe and keep it from running most likely all the time if its there...

Most Spyware and Adware can be removed using Adaware and Spybot s/d .

You can also try using Hijackthis

I use these on a regular basis on all my machines ,  just to keep systems clean.

But there are specific removal programs for some spyware and browser hijackers and toolbar jackers.

Hope this helps you ..

find it and I'm sure those are one of the files that you can download

You should never download a exe file without knowing what it is first. Executable files can do irreparable damage to your pc. Always scan the files. :)
