Spyware preventer, windows anti virus 2008, advanced anti virus,ultimate antivirus

I have all three of these things on my computer and there ruining it, I had a couple others that were just as bad in the scene of "pop ups" but much easier to get rid of >control panel add remove programs and remove them. These though aren't on the add remove programs but instead when I click control panel they are on the control panel. I've tried running nortons and every time it tries to activate my registration it gets so bogged down or times the internet out, also tried downloading avg but can I could only get it downloaded in safe mode due to all the pop ups and flooding of my memory, but it along with nortons said it would not work in safe mode. ANY tips would be more than helpful I don't post to often but when I do I usually get a great answer thanks guys.

YOu have too many conflicting programs trying to run at the same time. If you can somehow ditch the others, then you can install the Norton one.

You can use the search tool to locate the antispyware and delete it from there.

You have a lot of MALWARE on your system
Now you have a couple of options here.
Attempt a fix
OR
Back up your data and start over.

Norton will NOT resolve these issues, you need some malware removing programs such as Malwarebytes.org and The home of Spybot-S&D!

I would use BOTH as they detect these threats in different ways !

Best idea would be to down load, install and update them and then run the scans in SAFE mode.

For memory scan you can use Avast free home edition and superanti spyware or spybot.
Scan the computer in the safe mode.
Run hijack this then it might can remove the virus and spyware.
