Ok thnx

Proceed with the following :

run start.bat again and choose option 2.

Hit '1' and enter dll name manually :

C:\WINDOWS\System32\SQL.DLL and proceed


Then download and run AdAware :

http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/ (make sure you have latest updates) and run it.

Fix the entries it lists

Finally run CWShredder :

http://www.spywareinfoforum.com/~merijn/files/CWShredder.exe

Open -> 'fix' -> click 'next'

Then make sure you update XP and IE to the latest patches at windowsupdate.com

Open HijackThis again and fix the following if still present :
