Constant Pop-ups (even when IE is closed)

Please help, I keep getting pop-ups and other unwanted junk. As fast as I remove the offending stuff with ad-aware and hijack this, it comes right back! What am I missing? Here's my most recent log:

Before you start, please unzip HijackThis to it's own folder somewhere.
The program will make backups in the folder it's run from.
These easily get lost in a Temp folder and are an annoyance on the desktop.

It looks like part of your log has been cut off -- there are ususally entries past the O9 point ??

Uninstall Wintools from Control Panel > Add/Remove programs (reboot if required)

If you can't uninstall it from Add/Remove then
Use Taskmanager (Ctrl-Alt-Del) to end these running processes if you can
(or use Process Explorer)
C:\Program Files\Common files\WinTools\WToolsA.exe
C:\Program Files\Common files\WinTools\WSup.exe
C:\Program Files\Common files\WinTools\WToolsS.exe before removing it manually.

Run HijackThis again, push Scan and place a check mark next to the following items using your mouse.
Next, close all browser Windows, and push the 'Fix checked' button in HijackThis
