Please Help!!!! Computer still infected

I have attempted to follow all steps. I have run Spybot, Symantec, and Ad-Aware SE in safe mode. I have quarantined, removed, etc all files that have come up. I tried running the Bit Defender and the Panda Scan and during the scan but my I.E. keeps shutting down in mid-scan. I am hoping you can still help me with the logs from HiJackThis and the other two logs you requested.

I look forward to your early reply.

 

Try to run the scans again, this time try them in Safe Mode.

In the meantime, run the below..

1. Download this file - combofix.exe
2. Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
3. When finished, it will produce a log for you. Attach this log to your next reply

Note:

Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it is running. That may cause it to stall.
When you complete this and the online scans reboot and attach new logs from ShowNew, GetRunKey and HijackThis. Also, attach the online scan logs if you can get them to run.

 

O.k. I was finally able to run the Bit Defender scan. Panda Scan still keeps shutting down. Here are the new logs.

 

Here is the Bit Defender log and combofix log. I also forgot to tell you I ran Spybot, and Ad-Aware in safemode again and "fixed" all that came up.

 

First, please disable any antivirus and/or antispy programs you have installed so they will not block this fix.

Pre-Instructions:
Please print out these instructions so that you can operate with All Browser Windows CLOSED.


Step 1:
Please look in Add/Remove Programs for the following and uninstall if found. If you get any errors just make a note and proceed.

Step 2:
Now scan with HijackThis and check the boxes for the following entries:
( Make sure ALL browser windows are closed when you click FIX )

Again, make sure ALL browser windows are closed when you click FIX.

Step 3:
Copy the contents of the below Quote Box to Notepad. Then click File and then Save As. Change the Save as Type to All Files. Name the file fixme.reg and then click save. (make sure you save it somewhere you can find it. Saving it to your Desktop may make that easy.) Then double-click on the fixme.reg file on your desktop (or locate it with Windows Explorer and double click on it if not saved to the Desktop) and when it prompts to Add in to the registry, say yes.

Step 4:
