HJ log, ISEARCH the worst

Re: "ISEARCH" hijack toolbar.

I just started fixing my spyware problem. I have Windows XP and use IE 6.0. I have Spybot S&D, but I cannot get rid of "ISEARCH" hijack toolbar. Before running Spybot, ISEARCH or MYSEARCH always hijacked my browser, for about 2 weeks. Now, MYSEARCH is gone, but ISEARCH hijacks my browser whenever I try to go to the lavasoftusa site or just now when I tried to go to majorgeeks.com. I'm just learning this stuff and trying to get control of my computer again. Seriously, whoever is doing this is trespassing in my house. I can't wait until the law catches up with the technology. Anyway, thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

My hijackthis log follows:

Hi d huff,

Check the following items in HijackThis.
Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked:

R3 - URLSearchHook: iSearch Toolbar - {1C78AB3F-A857-482e-80C0-3A1E5238A565} - C:\WINNT\System32\toolbar.dll

O3 - Toolbar: iSearch Toolbar - {1C78AB3F-A857-482e-80C0-3A1E5238A565} - C:\WINNT\System32\toolbar.dll

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [intdctrr] C:\WINNT\System32\idctup20.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [mswspl] C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\msg7.tmp10862459591951.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [mvkoelhzbklxh] C:\WINNT\System32\kxrgwdu.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [alchem] C:\WINNT\alchem.exe

O4 - Startup: Download Plus.lnk = C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\DownloadPlus.exe

O4 - Global Startup: KODAK Software Updater.lnk = C:\Program Files\Kodak\KODAK Software Updater\7288971\Program\backWeb-7288971.exe

O8 - Extra context menu item: &iSearch The Web - res://C:\WINNT\System32\toolbar.dll/SEARCH.HTML

Then reboot into safe mode and delete:
C:\WINNT\System32\toolbar.dll
C:\WINNT\System32\idctup20.exe
C:\WINNT\System32\kxrgwdu.exe
C:\WINNT\alchem.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\DownloadPlus.exe
C:\WINNT\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

And (still in safe mode) use the DiskCleanup Tool to empty all your Temp folders.

When you are done, run HijackThis again and post the new log, so we can see if it all worked out as planned.
