[hulksmash31]

I downloaded a file the other day and it had the W32.Alcra.A worm infecting the file
I've tried running spybot, no luck. I ran AVG in safe mode and it didn’t even read an infection. I tried spy doctor with no luck
I then ran Ad-Aware SE Pro 1.06. It would read the worm and allow me to delete it. The problem is when I reboot, it comes back.
The worm will constantly boot up limewire when I’m online. It also won't let me access task manager. I really frustrated with this.

I’ve enclosed a copy of my hijack this log in the hopes that someone with more of a clue then I would have some suggestions on how to get rid of this thing.

Pls help
