Trouble removing spyware

For about the last week I have been trying many solutions to ridding a problem of web page redirects. I have been through the full process described under the Windows XP Cleaning Procedure and therefore am coming to this forum for assistance. SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes came up clean.

When I click down on a link (but not release it) you can see the web page in the bottom of the browser change from the supposed original target (shown when you do a mouse roll-over) to one involving the web site poiskin.ru. If you release the mouse click at that point it will take to you one of several general web directories, instead of your intended target web site. Funny thing is that it is inconsistent. Sometimes when you click down, the original target is not changed and the web page will load as expected upon the mouse release. Other times it is as described above.

I hope someone can assist with this. Thanks.

Thanks very much for your response. Regarding the April 1 activity, this is probably when I had to reinstall system files from backup. Previous spyware removal attempts had corrupted my userinit.exe file and god knows what other files in the system32 directory. I couldn't log back into the system no matter what I did...when going into my user account it would log me in then log me straight out again. My solution was to boot to Acronis True Image from CD and reload all the system 32 files from backup, even though I knew that these were from an infected backup. Then I started again to try to disinfect the system.

I have gone through all of your suggested steps. The MGlogs.zip files is attached. I want to thank you guys and compliment you on a robust and clear process for dealing with malware issues. Great job!

Having tried firefox for a while I haven't been subjected to any more redirects. So it looks like I am clean. I will post back here if they re-emerge.

Thanks again!
