Try and find what proccess they are running and force them to stop.

Try to shut all non system important proccesses down in the task manager.

Spybot is a great Anti-Spyware tool especially when combined with Adaware SE and Microsoft Anti-Spyware you should be safe but i don't think you can get out of it if you reformatted and spyware is still on there unless you actually use a hard drive boot disk killer. and then install windows but thats my guess.
