    Hi readercal

    Download Ad-aware from here: http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-file-292.html
    Install by double-clicking on the downloaded file.
    After installing but before running, update Ad-aware by using its Globe icon.
    After updating, shutdown and restart Ad-aware.
    Ad-aware is ready to scan and clean your system following these steps:

    Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Scanning Engine:
    "Unload recognized processes during scanning."
    Under Ad-aware 6 > Settings (Gear at the top) > Tweaks > Cleaning Engine:
    "Let Windows remove files in use after reboot."
    Press "Scan Now"
    Check option "Use Custom scanning options"
    Check option "Activate In-Depth Scan"
    Press "Select drives\folders to scan"
    Select the active partition which is usually C:
    Press "Next" to let Ad-aware scan your drives...
    If it finds "bad" files and registry keys, press "Next" again
    Right-click in that pane and choose "select all"
    Press "next"
    When it asks to remove all checked items, Press "OK"
    Close Ad-aware, reboot your system and go on to Step 2 below.


    Spybot S&D
    The download for Spybot S&D is available here: http://www.computercops.biz/downloads-file-108.html

    Install by double-clicking on the downloaded file.
    Run Spybot S&D from desktop icon or Start menu.
    Press "Search for updates" button to get list of updates available.
    Press "Download updates" button.
    Close all IE windows and close & restart Spybot S&D.
    Press "Check for problems" button.
    Have SpyBot remove all it marks in red by pressing "Fix selected problems".

    Close Spybot S&D, reboot your system .

    Empty your Temporary Internet Files and history in Internet Options. And clean out your
    %Userprofile%\Local Settings\Temp
    folder. It's a good idea to do that regularly.

    Run HIjackthis again and pls. post a FRESH log. Thanks.
