Every time I open Internet Explorer my home page has been changed to a blank page, there are unwanted links listed under favorites, and AVG detects at least two infected files:

AVG lists these trojans:

"Trojan horse Startpage.19.AO"
"Trojan horse BackDoor.Agent.8.L"

Ad-Aware always finds CoolWebSearch and some hijack attempts.

I've gone through all the programs suggested before posting this topic. I'v had a topic posted in the Lavasoft forum for a week and we still haven't resolved it. Please Help!

Here is my HiJackThis log:

Let me throw one more thing into the mix. In my Control Panel-Add/Remove Programs there are a couple of programs I can't uninstall. Infact they each prompt me to install a program to uninstall them.

"Home Search Assistant"
"Search Extender"
"Shopping Assistant"
