Help! Browser pop-ups and hijacks

Hi, my hijack is being hijacked or a new browser window pops up every few minutes. I've carried out steps 1 to 7 of the "READ & RUN ME FIRST Before Asking for Support" post, except that somehow I couldn't get Panda activescan to work.

I've also tried as far as I can, to identify the trojans in HijackThis (based on instructions in the HJT Tutorial thread) and tried to fix them (some of them refused to go away though).

I'm attaching the bitdefender and Hijackthis logs.

Please help. The popups are driving me nuts!

Seems to have solved the porblem. Wonderful
Thanks very much!

 

You have more issues that needs to be address, please attach the log from Ewido with a fresh HJT log.

 

I forgot to save the ewido log after the first scan yesterday. This a new log for today.

Again, make sure ALL browser windows are closed when you click FIX.

Now, Please boot into Safe Mode, be sure you have the Viewing of Hidden Files & Folders Enabled per the tutorial. Now, navigate to and DELETE the following if they should remain:

C:\Program Files\3721 ← Delete this whole folder if it exist!

C:\WINDOWS\downlo~1 ← Delete this whole folder if it exist!

Next, run CCleaner to clean up cookies and temp files.

Finally, I would like you to flush your System Restore points. Please follow the instructions in the below:

• Disable and Re-enable System Restore
  
  
• Turn OFF System Restore to flush any bad Restore Points.
  
  
• Then, follow the instructions at the bottom of the linked page to Re-enable the Restore Utility which will create a fresh restore point.

After you complete the above reboot once more and then scan with HijackThis and attach the new log.

Let me know of any problems you may have encountered with the above instructions and also let me know how things are running now.
