I can get to it by

Control panel> performance and maintenance> Little system restore button on top left under 'See also'

You should have already made a system restore point at some point in the past.

Start->help&support->system restore/backup point
That should give detailed instructions for you XP users.
That should help a little better than we are here.

Why do you want to do a system restore? If you have a virus or something that is a bad idea.

What's the problem, exactly?

I have spyware quake as a program on my comp and no matter what I do it doesn't leave. I uninstall it, delete it, and take the virus away but it is still there.

Don't restore for that.

Here try this. There's a tool for that.

I don't know why they would expect anyone to buy their product when they treat a potential customer like that.

Unbelieveable.

Spybot Search & Destroy is also a very nice free anti-spyware program and it's Vista ready.
