Something is attacking my computer!

First hello, and thank you in advanced.

I'd like to start this off by explaining the problems i have been having. One day i guess i downloaded something or who knows.. and my computer suddenly and drastically slowed down. i also noticed my google redirecting and pop-up ads as soon as my mouse went near a link. Also i ran Antivirus scans (which i uninstall for some reason) a lot of my .Dll files came into error. So i came upon this site and did the Windows XP Cleaning Procedures. I ran SUPERAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware fine and have the logs. ComboFix would first as me "Which user account do you want to use to run this program?" and my option would be current user(name of my account) and an option to "protect my computer and data from unauthorized program activity" which has a under description : This option can prevent computer viruses from harming your computer or personal data, but selecting it might cause the program to function improperly. SO i tried both and they both end up saying "some files could not be created. Please close all applications, reboot Windows and restart this installation" which of course i did.. and did not work.
i would also like to add the constant "freezing" of the computer. When i play a game it takes forever to load then freezes when i ALT+TAB. And EVERY program i open is extremely delayed. (normal 1 second now about 20-30 seconds)
starting a new paragraph so you're eyes don't strain..

just to ensure i followed the procedure, i couldnt save combofix directly to desktop, but i did move it. (hope thats not a biggie.. no option to save as to desktop)

Going on to rootrepeal, as soon as i double click the exe (also couldnt save but i moved it to desktop) the program pops up as well as an error. (error - invalid PE image found!). I hit ok and do the scan and save the log.

MGtools I downloaded the same way and moved to desktop. I open the .exe and quickly and error pops up as well (Failed to ensure dir exists: /MGtools) i read the how to use Mgtools forum and nothing about this problem was posted. I googled another site and it told me to go to run /cmd and type "cd /mgtools" which didn't work so i couldnt finish the rest of the processes it told me to go.

Well thats my story and if i forgot something im terribly sorry. I do have HiJackthis logs if that would help. This computer has been stressing me out for a while! i hope you can help!

* i found an old ComboFix log from a month or two ago.. just gonna throw that in. OLD log!!!

** so after typing all this i realized my computer froze on the superantispyware scan .. so it didnt save the log though it did complete it. im gonna post this and add the scan log in an hour or 2 when it finishes scanning. i hope this wont affect much! sorry for the inconvenience.

***i havent tried the whole Procedure in Safe-mode. please let me know if i should try that too. (felt like another long use of 3 hours scanning)

**** added an updated hijackthis.log

I've re-read the rules for this forum and i know I'm breaking them all in this post. Unfortunately i couldn't sit here and feel like i wont get a reply cause I posted my HJT post.. so I'm just going to add my updated SUPERantiSpyware scan log and hope for the best. My deepest apology geeks and specialist. I know you don't want to deal with people who didn't read rules first so here's my apology.

Forgot to add the fact that I tried to copy/move MGtools to C:\ but

Error Copy File or Folder
Cannot copy MGtools: Access is denied
Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected
and that the file is not currently in use.

It's not in use.(checked task manager) and tried on a fresh restart.

Thank you once again.

 

i was using Avira Antivir, i uninstalled it previous to all the scans and attempts of using the procedure.

I have redownloaded and moved combo fix onto the desktop and the same problem occured. If its any difference if i tell you that the combofix load bar lingers after crashing? And it also still runs in the taskmanager.

As for MGtools i did as you said about the MGtools and after typing CD /MGtools, it says the system cannot find the path specified.
MGtools is on my desktop and in my MYDOCUMENTS, unable to move into the Root C drive.

 

I just figured out i have Helpassistant user virus. And i believe thats why i cant run anything onto C folder or most of these antivirus stuff is not working. :cry

i will read up onto other post on this forum. will repost i guess if i cant fix it.

Fixing this causes me to use Combofix, which doesn't run.. Any other suggestions?

 

MGtools is on my desktop when i run it..

Error - Failed to ensure dir exists: \MGtools

*oh and it did not create the C:\MGTools folder.

typing ""%userprofile%\desktop\Combobatch.bat" /stepdel" in run program yet another error occurs..

Windows cannot find 'C:\Documents and settings\XPS\desktop\Combobatch.bat'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. to search a file, click start button and then click search.


I think i gave up on trying to "cure" this computer. Ive tried to reformat and start recovery console about 10 times each, each time "bluescreening" when it gets near starting up. Reformatting would be best right now just to start fresh, but it boots up the Windows XP cd, loads and then once it gets to the "installing windows" part, it bluescreens. tried this multiple times.

As for anti-virus scans. i scanned Malwarebytes and superantispyware, 3 times or so, clean as a whistle.

 

I changed the name of the file to Combobatch, and same problem, same error message.

This computer only about 3 years old, so from previous ownership i know to store most of my stuff on externals, so reformatting wont be a huge issue on terms of losing information. The pros over weigh the cons right now.

If i need help reformatting shall i start a new thread on the Software or Hardware side?

 

Thanks for your time and help! Though we couldn't figure it out. i learned a lot
