Alright, well my brother downloads lots of music and stuff and I guess this thing came packaged in one of them, cause that's the pnly probable explanation, because a few days ago the fake security program (I googled and found out it's fake) called called winspywareprotect got installed and I don't know how to remove it because everything I've tried doesn't get the source of it. And the stupid thing even disabled my task manager which took forever to re-enable. Any suggestions?
