Danger Screen Problem

Hello,

Normally I can solve these problems and normally they aren't this problematic. This computer has multiple users (family computer). It seems my family doesn't like to listen to my advice about what sites to go to and not to, and what do download and not download, etc. Someone had gotten the "Red and Black Danger: Spyware" malware on the computer, the RPCSS+ Virus among other things.

I've used Norton Anti-Virus, Ad-Aware, Spybot - S&D, Hijackthis, CW.Shedder, and FxAgentB

I have read a lot of the other posting about removing the RPCSS+ and the Danger:Spyware problem. With some success I have removed the RPCSS+ virus, but I am still semi-stuck with the Danger:Spyware problem.

I say semi-stuck, because I found the link (http://www.smart-sec...fo/removal.html for new people). I not only used the program to change the registry, but I also checked the registry with their manual guide to make sure it worked. The first time I used the program I rebooted right after and it worked. I had a blue screen again, could use right-click. I checked to see if I could change the background which I couldn't and as I hit ok, the Danger screen came back. So I rebooted, and it was still there. Ran the program again, and rebooted. The only thing it has done now it bring back the copy icon problem. I still have the Danger screen, double icon, about:blank homepage problems.

Here is my Hijackthis log

I know you're all busy, but it's been 5 days, I will continue to wait until someone can help me.

I have resolved the Danger: Spyware problem, I can now right-click on the desktop and elsewhere. I no-longer have that background, and I can also change my background.

I have followed 4 or 5 (I've lost count) other peoples fixed for the about:blank problem. I have the following programs/files and have tried what the others suggested:

Norton Anti-Virus (found and deleted files)
Hijackthis
DllCompare (rescan showed none)
SpSeHjfix (took seconds, deleted files, no autorestart, have log)
CWShredder (found nothing)
FXAgentB (found nothing)
slimshieldfixXP.reg
cwsserviceremove.reg
cleanup312
AboutBuster (used twice, deleted files, have log)
Killbox
Service Filter
Silent Runners
Start-Up List
Trend Micro Housecall (found some undeleted backups from HJT, are not deleted)
Panda Online Scan (found nothing)

I have all those programs/files; all have been run, except killbox. I can get new logs if needed. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

*Edit* forgot to post new HJT log, so here it is:

Are you still waiting patiently? It was a mistake to post a second time to the same post. They decide which to look at next by search for posts with no responses. When you posted a gain that dropped you out of the queue.

Let's see your latest HijackThis log. (now that I have answered it I will get an email when you post.)

no, I don't need help with the problem anymore. It seems someone got too impatient and formatted the HDD without notifying me first. So I've lost everything including the problems. Thank you though
