    I think your services.exe file is infected.

    http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/1263/frst.gif For 32-bit (x86) systems download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to a flash drive.
    For 64-bit (x64) systems download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool x64 and save it to a flash drive.

    Plug the flashdrive into the infected PC.

    Enter System Recovery Options.

    To enter System Recovery Options from the Advanced Boot Options:

    • Click Repair your computer.
    • Choose your language settings, and then click Next.

    • Select your user account an click Next.
    On the System Recovery Options menu you will get the following options:

    • The notepad opens. Under File menu select Open.
    • Select "Computer" and find your flash drive letter and close the notepad.

    • Note: Replace letter e with the drive letter of your flash drive.
    • The tool will start to run.
    • When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
    • Press Scan button.
    • It will make a log (FRST.txt) on the flash drive. Please attach this log to your next reply. (How to attach)

    What is inside of these folders?

    • C:\Users\john\Local Settings\dxhr
    • C:\Users\john\Local Settings\Application Data\dxhr
    • C:\Users\john\Local Settings\28050
    • C:\Users\john\AppData\Local\28050

    NOTICE: This script was written specifically for this user, for use on that particular machine. Running this on another machine may cause damage to your operating system

    Attached is fixlist.txt
    • Save fixlist.txt to your flash drive.
    • You should now have both fixlist.txt and FRST64.exe on your flash drive.

    Now re-enter System Recovery Options.
    Run FRST64 and press the Fix button just once and wait.
    The tool will make a log on the flashdrive (Fixlog.txt).
    Please attach this to your next message. (How to attach)

    Now attempt to boot normally.

    Now run the C:\MGtools\GetLogs.bat file by double clicking on it. (Right click and run as admin if using Vista or Windows7) Then attach the new C:\MGlogs.zip file that will be created by running this.

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

    all is well except my igfxtray.exe stopped working. supposedly its something to do with all the steam C++ installers that i get or the .net framework or something. its not that big a deal i guess but i used to be able to set my integrated 3d graphics presets, and now i cant access it anymore. probably not malware but its annoying me to no end. but yes the cpu usage went back down to normal levels, one problem i did have was my mcaffe firewall would block my internet access, so i uninstalled it. not sure what the deal was there. it was around the time this all started and im wondering if its ok to reinstall it now. also i can turn system restore back on and set my admin alerts back on too correct?
