sorry but how wrong could u be? why is it always re install windows...?

Firstly the reason they have come back is more than likely because they are in ur system restore. U need to turn this off before removing nething or they will still be there.

try running a virus scan, using both ur installed scanner and an online one

then run spybot s&d and ad-aware and remove the junk they find

edit. virusgenerator, i would advise changing ur name becos u are going to get no end of grief for that.
