    My machine has Swizzer virus as per Avg Free. It has been put in the vault per AVG. I have no idea how to handle this. Can anyone help. Thank you

    I may have saved the day (or blew it). Prior to your post, I ran adaware 2007, spybot, avg-anti spyware, and avg-anti virus. I disabled "system restore" prior to running these utilities. I ran in normal mode and safe-mode. Before running these utilities, I emptied the Avg vault of the entries put there by AVG. All results are positive at this point.

    Here is the HJT log

    Without seeing your logs there is now way for me to know if all of the malware is gone.
