I have attached my hijack this log. I have also followed the instructions contained in the message "you have a nasty about:blank infection". I haven't managed to clear up all the problems so I am obviously missing something here.
I am also a rookie to this site and to computer problems in general. I certainly appreciate all the wonderful info I have already received and I look forward to solving my immediate problem.
