who knows computers?, need help Options

[j0e_p3t]

okay... my computer got infected with this spyware and its really f-ing me up. i can't get rid of it with my yahoo anti-spy. and the spyware keeps advertising this antispy program that'll get rid of it. but of course its gonna cost an arm and a leg for me to buy their program that'll get rid of their own spyware. everytime i try to do a system restore... it says, "system restore has been turned off by group policy. to turn on system restore, contact your domain administrator." i tried system restore in safe mode but it still won't let me. help me please.

Honestly, I understand computers very well. I always provide options. Been doing this thing my whole life in fact i work for the feds.

These are your options.
#1 You can run spybot and adaware after installing it, run in normal or safe mode. and also run AVG in both. whatever works. If it fixes it thats that.
if it doesnt
#2 back up your files and restore your OS using the restore disk (not system restore) < if u use this you still wouldn't know if you restored it back to a time when it already had it. The farther you go back you lose track of what configurations were done at those points.
#3 Based on #2 just restore it using the manufacturer restore disk or if you are advanced from scratch if you dont have the disks or restore partition. Then just paste back the files that you previously backed up and thats that. The reason why I chose 3 is based off of 1 and 2 failing and this way for sure you don't have to waste your time realizing there is virus or spyware residue. You don't have to worry about it because you reformatted it.

Just let me know if you dont understand anything I said, in fact im dealing with 3 virus corrupted computers right now.
