roomates laptop got hit hard with virus/spyware, i deleted them in the running processors, then deleted them form startup, and deleted about 17 of the icons of porn and etc on the desktop, then downloaded firefox and ad-ware SE, scanned, deleted all 200+ bs on it, then got zone alarm suit and scanned and deleted more again, then next then u know, boom a bunch of bs icons on the desktop after all that, what should i do? i dont want to reformate because i dont want to install wireless net again and etc
 
go to the folders C:\, C:\windows, C:\windows\system32, and C:\program files\internet explorer
right click > view > list
right click > arrange icons > modified

the .exe's which have recently been put on there are likely to be the spyware/viruses you are looking for.
if in doubt, check the author. if it doesn't have one, it is likely spyware or viruses.
99% of non-malicious .exe's will have an author name
