Hello and thanks for the help
  I have a red thing that covers my desktop as soon as i log in and it has two links to click on that are the same thing they say Razespyware (as lowas 49.99)(demo direct download) my question is how do i get rid of it? it doesn't effect any of the processes or my desktop icons i was just wondering how it change it back to the normal desktop picture?

This is adware. Do you have an antispyware? Are you using a non registered version of razespyware? It could trigger this behavior.

If you have anti-spyware (Spybot and Ad-Aware are good), scan in safe mode.

Or it might just be a key in the registry making it come up most of the time. Which you can remove fairly easily.
