Hey guys,
I've recently become a victim of this whole Vimax malware problem, and I need help. I have already scanned my entire system with Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, and I have scanned with Norton Anti-Virus. Malwarebytes said it quarantined a trojan file, but I am still getting all the ridiculous Vimax adds in places like BBC.co.uk and such. I also have the current drivers for Vista. I have read the proper topic before posting, and I have done all the necessary steps (ERUNT, ATF...). Any help is GREATLY appreciated! Here is my log:

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware was finally allowed to update; it deleted several more trojan files, and the ads are gone. I believe I'm virus free now!
