If the virus protector virus is imitating spyware but has not disabled your actual program, open your spyware and run a virus scan. This should find the virus or viruses on your computer and give you the option of removing the problem.

If your actual spyware has been compromised, cannot find the virus, or you have no spyware, try checking manually for the problem in your downloads file. You can find your downloads file by opening the Start menu, clicking on "Documents", then finding "Downloads" on the left side of the window that will open. If you see any files that you did not mean to download, or that look obviously threatening, delete them. You may also need to look at your installed programs, which you can do by searching "programs" or "installed programs" in your Start menu. Again, if you find any programs you do not want or that look threatening, uninstall them.

If none of the above has removed the virus you can try a system restore. You can access system restore by searching "system restore" from your Start menu or by going from the Start menu and clicking "Control Panel" then "System and Security" then "Action Center" then "Recovery". When system restore opens you are able to choose what point you wish to restore your computer to. Your documents, photos, and videos will be saved, but downloads after the point you choose will be wiped out (including the virus). You need only choose a restoration point a few days before you first noticed the virus. System restore will restart your computer and make take several minutes.
