Smart Security is what is known as a rogue. It IS a virus. Read this:

Now you need a real AV program. I suggest you look at reviews like this one:

Eset has a legitimate program called Smart Security, Depends on what you actually got. Read this guide, this one is the bad one. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-windows-smart-security

Nod32 antivirus is just the anti-malware and anti-spyware protection, while the nod32 smart security includes the firewall, parental control, anti-theft, spam protection, mail protection, and so fourth. The suite or Smart Security is always recommend over the antivirus alone unless you have a third party firewall in mind.
