I'll take a look...

[Broni]

I didn't find any serious problems, but please, do as follows:

1. Print this post out, since you won't have an access to it, at some point.

2. Download, and install Spybot (if you don't have it) from here: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

3. Close all windows, except for HJT.

3a. Go Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove, and uninstall Ask Jeeves Toolbar (if present). Some consider it as adware:
http://www.benedelman.org/spyware/installations/askjeeves-banner/

4. Put a checkmark next to following HJT entries:

- R3 - URLSearchHook: (no name) - {0579B4B6-0293-4d73-B02D-5EBB0BA0F0A2} - C:\Program Files\AskSBar\SrchAstt\1.bin\A2SRCHAS.DLL

5. Click on "Fix It" button.

6. Restart your computer in Safe Mode (keep tapping F8 key, when your computer starts)

7. Run Spybot (check for updates, first), and fix whatever it asks you to fix.

8. Open Windows Explorer. Go Tools>Folder Options>View tab, put a checkmark next to "Show hidden files, and folders".

9. Delete following files (if they still exist):

- AskSBar folder from C:\Program Files\

10. Turn off System Restore:

- Windows XP:
   1. Click Start.
   2. Right-click the My Computer icon, and then click Properties.
   3. Click the System Restore tab.
   4. Check "Turn off System Restore".
   5. Click Apply.   
   6.  When turning off System Restore, the existing restore points will be deleted. Click Yes to do this.
   7. Click OK.
- Windows Vista:
   1. Click Start.
   2. Right-click the Computer icon, and then click Properties.
   3. Click on System Protection under the Tasks column on the left side
   4. Click on Continue on the "User Account Control" window that pops up
   5. Under the System Protection tab, find Available Disks
   6. Uncheck the box for any drive you wish to disable system restore on (in most cases, drive "C:")
   7. When turning off System Restore, the existing restore points will be deleted. Click "Turn System Restore Off" on the popup window to do this.
   8. Click OK

11. Restart in Normal Mode.

12. Turn System Restore on.

13. Run HJT again, and post back its log back here.

Thank you Broni! 

[Broni]

You're welcome:)
Did all steps work OK? Did Spybot find anything?

What about your initial issue about those unknown pictures?
http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php/topic,45713.0.html

[pepper]

I finally got time to do this.  I had two problems. 

#8 when I went to tools there as no "folder options" so I went to internet options but I couldn't find it there either.

#9 I tried to delete AskSBar but got an error message "cannot delete, access denied"

I still went through the rest of the instructions and here is my new log from HJT

I didn't realize that I would have to pay for Spybot in order to get everything fixed.  I had 242 errors and only 15 were removed and to get the 227 remaining I had to pay $29.95.

I'm going to go check to see if those pictures are gone or still there.

[pepper]

Well after all that and $29.95 all those pictures are still there!!!   

[Broni]

I don't know where you went to download Spybot, but Spybot is free, and free at the download link, I gave you:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html

Now, let me take a look at your HJT log.

[Broni]

One more thing...NEVER, EVER pay for any security program without asking for advice!!!

Now...

1. Print out these instructions as we will need to close every window that is open later in the fix.

2. Download SmitfraudFix.exe from here and save it to your desktop:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/smitfraudfix.php

3. Next, please reboot your computer into Safe Mode by doing the following:

   a. Restart your computer

   b. Start tapping F8 key

   c. A menu will appear

   d. Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

4. Close all open Windows.

5. Now, double-click on the SmitFraudfix icon.

6. When the tool first starts you will see a credits screen. Simply press any key on your keyboard to get to the next screen.

7. You will now see a menu. Press the number 2 on your keyboard and the press the Enter key to choose the option Clean.

8. The program will start cleaning your computer and go through a series of cleanup processes. When it is done, it will automatically start the Disk Cleanup program.
This program will remove all Temp, Temporary Internet Files, and other files that may be leftover files from this infection. This process can take up a long time depending on your computer, so please be patient. When it is complete, it will close automatically and you should continue with next step.

9. When Disk Cleanup is finished, you will be presented with an option asking Do you want to clean the registry ? (y/n). At this screen you should press the Y button on your keyboard and then press the Enter key.

10. When this last routine is finished, you will be presented with a red screen stating Computer will reboot now. Close all applications. You should now press the spacebar on your computer. A counter will appear stating that the computer will reboot in 15 seconds. Do not cancel this countdown and allow your computer to reboot.

11. Once the computer has rebooted, you will be presented with a Notepad screen containing a log of all the files removed from your computer.
Save that log to your desktop, and attach it to your next reply.

Okay I'm going to print this but first I have to tell you that I went to Spybot from the link you posted and ran the scan and it found 242 errors but only 15 would be fixed for free.  I had to pay the $29.95 to get the remaining errors fixed.

[Broni]

I had to pay the $29.95 to get the remaining errors fixed.

I-M-P-O-S-S-I-B-L-E!!!
Did you download THIS:


[saving disk space - old attachment deleted by admin]

[pepper]

Not impossible!!!  #10 - red screen never happened.  When everything was done I had to restore my wallpaper and my homepage.  I still have 44,739 pictures and I'm done now.  Thanks for your patience.

OK, I had to go back, because you've never answered one of my questions:
Go Start>Control Panel>Add/Remove, and uninstall Ask Jeeves Toolbar. It may be called Ask Toolbar. Is it there?

[pepper]

I saw that Ask Toolbar but wasn't sure if it was the same as Jeeves.  I just now uninstalled it.

[Broni]

Very good. Give me your new HJT log.

You need to restart your computer to complete that uninstall (so far, so good), and post a new log. We're almost there.

Nice. You're clean...

Now, what about those few thousands of pictures?

[pepper]

Before this there was 44,739 and now there is 44,740.  LOL!!!!!!

[Broni]

OK, OK...where are they located?

[Broni]

I'm leaving for the movies, right now, so we'll have to continue tomorrow.

[pepper]

Thanks Broni for your help.  My computer is definitely running faster even though all those pictures are still there. 

There is something on my desktop that I would like to get rid of.  It wasn't there before.  The words "Windows XP Home Edition" etc.  How do I get rid of that?

[Broni]

You're welcome...

I need to know, where those pictures are...

The words "Windows XP Home Edition" etc.  How do I get rid of that?

Where on your desktop is it? It may be not possible to remove it. Was it always there?

[pepper]

 The Windows XP Home Edition is on the lower right hand corner of my desktop.  It was never there before.

I find the pictures when I go to search and check pictures and videos.  Some of my pictures are there but 95% of them are weird pictures and I have no idea how they got there.

[Broni]

Since we did all that security cleaning, delete all those unwanted pictures, and watch closely, if they'll reappear.

[pepper]

A friend told me not to delete them because they maybe related to programs.  I'm afraid to delete them.  When you do a search on your computer for pictures and videos how many do you have?

[evilfantasy]

I find the pictures when I go to search and check pictures and videos.  Some of my pictures are there but 95% of them are weird pictures and I have no idea how they got there.

Templates from photo editing programs?

[Broni]

I don't know of any videos, being needed by your OS.
There are some graphic files (like icons) needed by some programs, but they are located in particular program's folder.
It'd helpful, if you state in what folder you have those files.

[pepper]

I think they are all in different folders.  When you do a search for pictures doesn't it check all the folders for pictures?

[Broni]

When you do a search for pictures doesn't it check all the folders for pictures?

Yes.
In that case, I think, you need to take couple of days off, and check those pictures one-by-one. I can't imagine any other advice, since I don't want you to delete your own pictures.

[CBMatt]

A word of advice...your HijackThis is in a temporary location where it (and its backups) will eventually be deleted.  I would advise moving (or re-downloading) it to a new permanent location where it can be kept safely.

Also...those pictures probably aren't anything to worry about.  Most of them are probably from various programs/games/whatever.  They should be harmless.  However, if you would like to clear up some space, you could go through them all and try to determine if there are any you can safely get rid of.  Keep in mind that this will probably take you quite awhile.
