trojanloader.xs help?

Sorry, back again...

Just checked my system startup list, found something called "ctfmon.exe" still there. 

I remember one of the previous processes listed that as malware or something, and supposedly removed it.

Ideas?

Thanks

Sounds like you need to reset your wallpaper.

Try uninstalling and then re-installing Avast. Avast! Home Edition

For a firewall I would suggest Comodo in Advanced mode Comodo Firewall

Evil;... Uninstalled/Reinstalled Avast, performed boot scan, came out clean.

Loaded Comodo Firewall... scanned, 1 detection, deleted.

Is it now safe to trust this machine?
Should I hang onto all the programs-OTMoveIT, Highjackthis, Mbam

Read Tony Kleins essay.

What else should /can I do?

Thanks for all your help.

Definitely look through Tony Kleins article.

All the programs are safe to keep (except OTMoveIT) and run occasionally to make sure nothing has crept in.

1. Double click OTMoveIt2.exe to launch it.
If using Vista Right-Click OTMoveIt and choose Run As Administrator
2. Click on the CleanUp! button.
3. OTMoveIt2 will download a list from the Internet, if your firewall or other defensive programs alerts you, allow it access.
4. Click YES at the next prompt (list downloaded, Do you want to begin cleanup process?)

• When finished exit out of OTMoveIt2

.
I'm 99.99% sure you are now clear of malware.

Let me know if anything else comes up.

Everything appears to be functioning as it should... even better than before the bug.

Thanks for all your excellent help.  Greatly appreciated.
