Problems after removing IncredFind

I used procedures found in this forum to remove IncredFind using HijackThis.

Internet Explorer does not automatically go to IncredFind now but behaves as follows:

- returns 'page not found' for any page that runs a CGI

- for some url's it returns a Lycos search result page, eg.
entering symantec.com for the Address returns a Lycos search page

- entering norton.com returns the Symantec home page

Those are typical behaviors tested with other example sites.

The current HijackThis log is

I will be very appreciative of help with this.

Hi crmurr,

Download and run: http://www.memorywatcher.com/uninst.exe
The program needs internet access to finish.

Release all the BHO's BHODemon is blocking before you proceed. (Do NOT open any new explorer or IE windows after that untill you have reached the stage where you reboot)
Check the items listed below in HijackThis, close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked:
