Hi there, this is my first post at this forum. I've tried everything from the "read this first post" but so far no luck.

I have Trend Micro PC Cillin Internet Security 2005 installed and the virus scan keeps finding 2 particular trojans but can't remove them. It put them into quarantine and they come back. I've tried using a few different trojan scans but to no prevail.

They are:

bucptalic.exe

appsetup.exe

I don't even know what these are. The virus scanner is telling me they're Trojans.

I've also been experiencing a few other problems. My computer will bluescreen at random times saying that there's been a fatal system error. And I seem to have some sort of adware called desktop search. I CANNOT get rid of it. It's this annoying little search box thing that has attached itself to my taskbar. I did a bit of research and apparently it's really hard to get rid of and somehow brings other malware into the computer.

Finally, I keep getting one particular popup when I'm on the net. It's called spotresults.com

Here's my HijackThis Log:
