JHayes.... ok ...lets see what we can do .
First , Turn off the system restore .......
Then if you don't have it ....download ....hijackthis and save it to a folder on your desktop....... http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html
Next , if you don't already have it installed ........
download and install CCleaner and configure it as shown here ........
http://www.computerhope.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?num=1149834478now run ccleaner ...... the clean function first .....removing anything it finds ....... then use the "issues " function ...... and fix anything it finds .......
Now reboot into ....safe mode ...and run your antivirus program ( not your spyware scanner ) and of course remove anything it finds.....
Now , if you have windows defender installed , or antispyware ......run it as well ,while you are in safe mode .......... now reboot back into normal and run a scan with hijackthis and post the logfile here ......... If the log file is too large to fit in one post ..... do it in 2 posts .......
