Just registered because I need some serious computer help and figured here is the place.
Ok, so my computer has been running slow - I figured it was due to Ad/Malware so updated all my ad/malware programs and deleted the things I found.
However, my computer is still getting pop-ups, and I still only have dial-up at my parents house, and the internet keeps getting d/c'd because of this.
I ran my Symantec antivirus and it detected the bloodhound w.32.ep virus saying it can't get rid of it. I have run all programs I have - all being Adaware, GIANT spyware + bps spyware - and this is my current hijackthis log:
