Please Download CoolWebShredder, from http://www.geekstogo...=download&id=17 , Extract it & run the program. Click the Next Button & let it scan. Make sure you let it fix all CWS Remnants.

Press Control-Alt-Del to enter the Task Manager.

Click on the Processes tab and end the following processes:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\avservice.exe
Exit the Task Manager when finished. (I need to know what this process is. Right-click on it. Do you know what it is? I think we need to get rid of it, but want to make sure.)

Close all programs leaving only HijackThis running. Place a check against each of the following, making sure you get them all and not any others by mistake:

Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.

Please reboot into safe mode (continually tap the F8 key while your system is starting, select Safe Mode from the menu).
Be sure you're able to view hidden files, and remove the following files in bold (if found):

C:\windows\system32\elitepmd32.exe


Post back a fresh HijackThis log and we will take another look.
