"Dumb users trump smart software every time."
The way you describe it, your system is compromised beyond salvation, and you need to do a clean install. But I can guarantee you that no matter what you do, the problems will always return until you learn how to use the Internet wisely. One of the most important things you can do is to be extremely cautious about the web sites you visit, the objects you click on and the "free" software you install. A better attitude wouldn't kill you, either.
