I recommend you uninstall these programs:

Perfect Optimizer
XoftSpySE

----------

Delete these files/folders, as follows:

1. Go to Start > Run > type Notepad.exe and click OK to open Notepad.
It must be Notepad, not Wordpad.
2. Copy the text in the below code box by highlighting all the text and pressing Ctrl+C

Code: [Select]

KillAll::

DDS::
TB: {4E7BD74F-2B8D-469E-84BA-B830E8D4E122} - No File
AppInit_DLLs: interceptor.dll  ,

File::
c:\windows\Tasks\At1.job
c:\progra~1\PERFEC~1\PerfectOptimizer.exe
c:\windows\Tasks\XoftSpySE 2.job
c:\program files\XoftSpySE\XoftSpy.exe

Folder::
c:\program files\XoftSpySE

Registry::
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\windows]
"AppInit_DLLs"=""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager]
"BootExecute"=hex(7):61,75,74,6f,63,68,65,63,6b,20,61,75,74,6f,63,68,6b,20,2a,00,00

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\explorer\mountpoints2\{58155ecc-f704-11dd-a1a9-806e6f6e6963}]

3. Go to the Notepad window and click Edit > Paste
4. Then click File > Save
5. Name the file CFScript.txt - Save the file to your Desktop
6. Then drag the CFScript (hold the left mouse button while dragging the file) and drop it (release the left mouse button) into ComboFix.exe as you see in the screenshot below. Important: Perform this instruction carefully!



ComboFix will begin to execute, just follow the prompts.
After reboot (in case it asks to reboot), it will produce a log for you.
Post that log (Combofix.txt) in your next reply.

Note: Do not mouseclick ComboFix's window while it is running. That may cause your system to freeze

Also let me know how the computer is running now?
