Did you try to use Norton as your boot disk? If not, try that and follow the instructions. You will have to delete this virus before the operating system boots.

Yes, I used Norton as the boot disk as well. Sorry I forgot to mention that. No virus was found. I also ran the software after Windows loaded. Still found nothing either way.

Okay, then it's not a virus. It's malware/spyware. Sounds like it is running with a vengeance, too.

Above someone mentioned Ad-Aware. Download it and use it. It's free. Or you could pay for the professional version.
