Two suggestions.

Easiest one; Download About:Buster. Run it in safe mode. Twice. At least.

Your primary problem is thelines that look like this: R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = file://C:\DOCUME~1\Owner\LOCALS~1\Temp\sp.html

Try one or both of those steps. Then remove those before using Internet Explorer again. Thats important, close IE when starting and keep it closed.

 

A couple of other comments:
1) You have HijackThis running from a temp directory (or out of the ZIP file):
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\Temporary Directory 2 for Hijackthis.zip\HijackThis.exe

Don't do that! Get HijackThis into its own directory. For example, you can make a directory called c:\Program Files\HJT and put the HijackThis.exe file in that directory.

2) In addition to a variation of the About:Blank hijack, you possibly have a peper trojan or another unknown trojan. Make sure you run these:
- http://www.memorywatcher.com/uninst.exe
- http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp <--- select Auto Clean
- http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/com/activescan_principal.htm

After that we can continuing working on the About:Blank problem if About:Buster did not fix it. I think this may be one of the forms that About:Buster had problems with (at least previous versions did). We may have to use FINDnFIX (we'll get to that later).
