You will need to do a system restore. Restart your computer in safe mode (reboot and press the F8 key continuously until you get the option to start in safe mode). When in safe mode, use system restore to restore your system to just before you installed that Service Pack.
Just try to restart the system in safe mode and download any antivirus.
I uninstalled from programs in Vista (look for maxmyspeed and delete it) and... it did NOT work, BUT... after that I went to the "Safe Mode" (control panel + admin tools + system configuration) and being in Safe Mode, I did the same (uninstall the program looking for maxmyspeed and deleted it) I do restart and IT WORKS ! I have restarted 3 times and the maxmyspeed pop-up doesn't appear anymore!
