Whew. It took a few attempts but I think it finally went away. The file that renames itself constantly didn't seem to want to go. Here are the new logs:
What was the name of the file.
To complete the fix you needed to do the online virus scan
Please read through the instructions before you start (you may want to print this out).
Please set your system to show all files; please see here if you're unsure how to do this.
Please go offline, close all browsers and any open Windows, making sure that only HijackThis is open. Scan and when it finishes, put an X in the boxes, only next to these following items:
F2 - REG:system.ini: Shell=Explorer.exe C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [rxgymz] c:\windows\system32\qpwutj.exe
Click on Fix Checked when finished and exit HijackThis.
Reboot into Safe Mode: please see here if you are not sure how to do this.
If you were unable to find any of the files then please follow these additional instructions:
Download Pocket Killbox and unzip it; save it to your Desktop.
Run killbox and click the radio button that says Delete a file on reboot. For each of the files you could not delete, paste them one at a time into the full path of file to delete box and click the red circle with a white cross in it.
The program will ask you if you want to reboot; say No each time until the last one has been pasted in whereupon you should answer Yes. Let the system reboot.
C:\WINDOWS\Nail.exe
c:\windows\system32\qpwutj.exe
Reboot as normal.
Please run the following free, online virus scans.
