      Sorry for the caps. I downloaded the file that you instructed me to.  I cannot get on the internet with the infected laptop.  I tried to load it from a thumb drive on to  the infected laptop but it will not let me.

        when I click on the file the hour glass comes up like its loading and nothing happens after that.  When I try to drag the file to the desktop it will not drag.  I have tried this in the normal mode and in the safe mode.  I might have to try to reformat the hard drive but I want that to be my last option.

          Okay,  I have gotten it to load by using the dos command prompts and copying the superantispyware.exe file to the c directory from the d drive.
