After clicking Fix, exit HJT.

Now copy just the bold text below to notepad (Do not include any space above the word REGEDIT). Save it as fixME.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above

Startup_CPL

If you do a search on flux.exe you will see why I asked that it be removed. It is being reported as malware on numerous sites. We can test this when we are sure you are clean.

Do you have your XP cd?

 

According to your last Combo log, you have become more infected. Both winlogon and explorer.exe are both infected and you have no backups for those files. The only way we can replace them is by having the XP CD and using the Recovery Console.

Can you borrow a cd from someone? It has to be the same as what you have installed, either Home or Pro.
