Hey,

Recently, my computer has started to run pretty slow at random times, and sometimes opens Internet Explorer windows with advertising. I thought it could have been Vundo, after reading about it but after running numerous adware/spyware/virus scans, nothing is finding it. I tried Vundo Fix, and that also said that the system is not infected with Vundo. I tried running Symantec's Fix Vundo, but it encountered an error half way through and just closed.

A few hours ago, Internet Explorer opened (I use Firefox) and it continuously opened a new tab like every second... it was just going crazy.

I really don't know what else to do... I've tried lots of different scans and attempted to clean everything that was found but I'm still having the same problems.

Here is my HJT log.
