Problem Summary: antivir.exe and related cohorts

I found anitvir.exe running while tryingf to figure out what was preventing me from getting anywhere on my computer. Any entry triggers IE into opening with the address "free-viruscan.com." I'm constantly deluged with warnings about infections. I've pulled DSL wire because I heard that this is a trojan. I'm using a friend's computer. Help!!! I've been up all night wrestling with this. Catch you after some shuteye.
