I know there are softwares on the web that give you the scan, but don’t allow you to remove it unless you pay. So how can I remove it all effectively, without a cost?

The easiest way to fix it is using Malwarebyte’s Anti-Malware (Download it, update it, do a full scan, and remove everything it finds).
I would also recommend the following programs to make the removal easier and make sure you don’t get infected again in the future:
Avira AntiVir Personal
Spyware Doctor Starter Edition

Free Firewall that is better than Windows own firewall - ZoneAlarm
Download the free version on this page:
Free anti-spyware - Spybot Search and Destroy
Install this and it will scan every file (and the Registry) on your computer for spyware and crimeware. This can take over 20 minutes.
If it removes some spyware/crimeware, shut the computer down, restart, and run it again, because some spyware is very good at hiding behind other spyware. Keep running it until it reports no spyware.
Free anti-virus - AVG Free
Now install this and let it run just like Spybot was running, over and over until it reports no viruses present.
You will have to update Spybot and AVG every day because the virus and crimeware programmers are putting out new stuff every day.
It’s a never-ending battle.
