Whenever I connect to the internet, some viral programs start to download all by themselves (Hidden download). I can't browse the net safely. Whenever I remove these programs, or wahtever they are, they keep on coming back. It also affects the speed of my internet connection.

Can somebody please appoint a light-weight yet powerful software to prevent these secret/hidden downloads...

These three threads have great advice on what programs to use for malware. They are all stickied to the top of the list of threads...
