    5. It is important that you reply to this thread. Do not start a new topic.
    6. Your security programs may give warnings for some of the tools I will ask you to use. Be assured, any links I give are safe.
    7. Absence of symptoms does not mean that everything is clear.

    I strongly recommend that you remove Ask from your computer because it;

    •Promotes its toolbars on sites targeted to kids.

    •Promotes its toolbars through ads that appear to be part of other companies' sites.

    •Promotes its toolbars through other companies' spyware.

    •Installs without any disclosure whatsoever and without any consent whatsoever.

    •Solicits installations via "deceptive door openers" that do not accurately describe the offer; failing to affirmatively show a license agreement; linking to a EULA via an off-screen link.

    •Makes confusing changes to users' browsers -- increasing Ask's revenues while taking users to pages they didn't intend to visit.

    See Here for more info.

    If you choose to follow my recommendation then please go to Start > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and remove the following programs if present.

    AskBarDis or anything related to Ask
    Please also uninstall SearchToolbar
    Then please find and delete this folder in bold (if present):
    C:\Program Files\AskBarDis. or anything related to Ask.

    ***************************************************
    P2P - I see you have P2P software installed on your machine (LimeWire). We are not here to pass judgment on file-sharing as a concept. However, we will warn you that engaging in this activity and having this kind of software installed on your machine will always make you more susceptible to re-infections. It is certainly contributing to your current situation.

    Please note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares.

    I would strongly recommend that you uninstall them, however that choice is up to you. If you choose to remove these programs, you can do so via Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs.

      Please download ComboFix from BleepingComputer.com

      Alternate link: GeeksToGo.com

      Rename ComboFix.exe to commy.exe before you save it to your Desktop
      Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with our tools A guide to do this can be found here
      Click Start then copy paste the following command into the search box & hit enter: "%userprofile%\desktop\commy.exe" /stepdel
      As part of it's process, ComboFix will check to see if the Microsoft Windows Recovery Console is installed. This will not install in Vista. Just continue scanning, and skip the console install.
      When finished, it shall produce a log for you.  Please include the contents of C:\ComboFix.txt in your next reply.
