    Strange pop-ups after downloading Anti-virus!

    Hello I hope you guys can help me out please.....

    I was trying to download some security software for my sisters computer which had absolutely NO security on it. I downloaded Ad-Aware, then I downloaded Spy-Bot. After I downloaded Spy-Bot there was a pop-up message that said Spy-Bot was incompatible with Ad-Aware...which I just ignored it b/c I was planning on fixing it later. I did not run any of the programs, simply installed them.

    Then I downloaded Avast 4.8 Anti-Virus software which is where the problem started. Suddenly there were 2 new applications on my desktop: Bundle-Apps Creator and also Production Smart Image. I also continue getting the same pop ups when the computer is restarted- OEM Reset Reminder, Device Manager, and SoftThinks Multimedia Tester- which if I try to close will make a huge window pop saying "FAILURE" in bold red letters and will cause the D: drive to automatically open and close continually. System restore didnt work.

    I ran Spybot which found Win32:Adware. Avast found some win32:Trojans and Win32:adware. I cant seem to get rid of it. Any help would be very much appreciated!

    Hmmm...so I guess nobody here knows how to fix the problem?

    Now the computer won't even let me get to the desktop. When the computer comes on after having been restarted a message pops up that reads: Fatal Error- An error has been encountered that prevents setup from continuing. Windows is unable to start because the registry could not be updated.
