Downloaded FlashPlayer, now have trouble with adware? HELP.

loads of problems with adware after downloading the bogus flash player, I have deleted all the downloaded programs but still having problems .with adds coming up all over the place. Moreover, while typing this keep having to get rid of an ad for a virus checker. At my wits end, any help would be great.

It has got rid of restore, so can't go back in time.

have you got a recent system image or any other back up?

Try booting into safe mode and the system restore from there.

Back up any necessary files, nuke it and start from scratch.

It's the only way to be certain that everything has been removed.
