Backstory: my cousin used my computer(unknown to my knowledge until i checked the history) to access untrusted site. Porn, in other words. Now i have a shitload of adware...I suspect it all comes from the same file, and i ran an HjT scan and here's what i found the be the problem.

C:\Program Files\IntCodec\isamonitor.exe
C:\Program Files\IntCodec\pmsngr.exe
C:\Program Files\IntCodec\pmmon.exe
C:\Program Files\IntCodec\isamini.exe

I located the files and attempted to delete them. It said they were 1. Being used by another program, or 2. I can't delete them because of copyrights.

I tried erasing them using eraser, but it would also fail in deleting the file. normal overwriting wouldn't work either.

So...I now have these files tham i'm almost certain are the malware that is causing annoying pop-ups and i can't seem to delete it. Please, if anyone knows how to get rid of this or quarantine it at least, I would deeply appreciat it if you could point me in the right direction.

made a little mistake: it's adware, i think not spyware.

also, i ran Ad-Aware SE, Spybot and avast. I think Spybot can detect it but won't delete it. the other two cant detect it.

Those are parts of w32.Myzor.FK@fy. Your cousin downloaded a fake "codec". Get rid of it by following this guide.
