Ok so I let me little cousin use my computer and now there is some program on my computer that is totally screwing my PC up, it crashes the explorer often and it pops up on my taskbar saying something about it detects spyware and blah blah. When I click on it, it brings me to a website called virusprotectionpro.com

I can't seem to find it in the add/remove programs, I downloaded a uninstaller program called "Your Uninstaller! 2006". It doesn't seem to find anything either.
It is taking up over 2 gigs on my hard drive.. I cant find any new files in my programs either. Anyone know where I could start to get rid of this thing?
