Help with hijackthis

[Mandy]

I ran hijackthis and I can't get rid of some of these files that I think are viruses. After I "fix" them they come back either with different name or same name. How do I permently get rid of them? I am using AVG Antivirus which comes back no virus found. I also ran Yahoo Anti-Spy and removed all items. I want to get rid of whatever it is cause I keep getting an error message Windows Explorer has encountered problem and needs to close.

Mandy....Sound like a trojan.....( partcularly if it comes back with a differant name )
Usully hijackthis is very good at removing trojans .......Are you sure you didnt miss removing all the bad entries ?

Run your hijack again and post it here ......

Cheers

It didn't work. I'm wondering aren't some of these items a virus? And how do I delete them?

Running processes:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\smss.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogon.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe

Also what is this c:\windows\system32\covdwp.exe

[Amanda Martinez]

Everytime I delete a different one comes back in the list.
Now says O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [rvvpwuq] c:\windows\system32\kplvzp.exe

Well I think I solved the problem.  I ran my computer in safe mode and then ran my antivirus and it found 7 viruses in my yahoo parogram! For some reason the antivirus didn't catch it in normal mode cause I ran it several time and it came back clean. Anyways, since doing that earlier I haven't had the problems. So far so good! Thanks for you help.
