I am in need of some assistance in an attempt to remove all Viruses from this computer system...

So far, what I have done is run an Antivirus Scan outside of windows using Avast. I has found the majority of the virus files, but there still seems to be something messing with the files, like the proxy and the host file...

I have managed to reset it for now, but I am not sure if rebooting will make it go back to the previous settings causing the internet not to work...

I have done a HiJackThis Scan and I selected all files that were missing as well as some entries in the host file...

Another thing is that my host file was messed up...

There was 1 file called hosts.new and one called hosts...

The hosts was hidden and the hosts.new seemed to be in 'charge'

I removed the hosts.new and made back a proper hosts file...

As I said before....I don't know if rebooting will make it go back to the previous setting...

A HiJackThis Log file is attached...

Hi there Hijackthis will not give sufficient data to determine the problem

Download OTL to your Desktop
Secondary link

• Double click on the icon to run it. Make sure all other windows are closed and to let it run uninterrupted.
  
  
  
• Select All Users
• Select LOP and Purity
• Under the Custom Scan box paste this in
  
  netsvcs
  BASESERVICES
  %SYSTEMDRIVE%\*.exe
  c:\program files (x86)\Google\Desktop
  c:\program files\Google\Desktop
  dir "%systemdrive%\*" /S /A:L /C
  CREATERESTOREPOINT
  
• Click the Run Scan button. Do not change any settings unless otherwise told to do so. The scan wont take long.
  
• When the scan completes, it will open two notepad windows. OTL.Txt and Extras.Txt. These are saved in the same location as OTL.
• Attach both logs

THEN

Download aswMBR.exe ( 4.5mb ) to your desktop.
Double click the aswMBR.exe to run it Click the "Scan" button to start scan
