Reboot after doing so, preferably into safe mode and delete:

C:\Documents and Settings\Cliente\Dados de aplicativos\ATOMMA~1 <= the entire folder that holds Idol view.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Cliente\Dados de aplicativos\SHIMHO~1\ <= the entire folder that holds mixsendplus.exe
Please read http://www.spywarewa...nti-spyware.htm about Spyblocs. Then decide if you want to continue using it.

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, then click fix checked.
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Surflicenseobjinternet] C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Dados de aplicativos\Two multi surf license\CREATIVEBAIT.exe
Please reboot into safe mode (continually tap the F8 key while your system is starting, select Safe Mode from the menu).
Be sure you're able to view hidden files, and remove the following files in bold (if found):
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Dados de aplicativos\Two multi surf license <- this folder
Reboot your PC.
If you would please, rescan with HijackThis and post a fresh log in this same topic, and let us know how your system's working.

How do you prevent spyware from being installed again? We strongly recommend installing SpywareBlaster (it's free for personal use) Click Here.
Download, run, check for updates, download updates, select all, protect against checked. All done. Check for updates every couple of weeks. If you have any errors running the program like a missing file see the link at the bottom of the javacool page.Prevent the installation of ActiveX-based spyware, adware, browser hijackers, dialers, and other potentially unwanted pests.
Block spyware/tracking cookies in Internet Explorer and Mozilla/Firefox.
Restrict the actions of potentially dangerous sites in Internet Explorer.
Consumes no system resources.
It's also very important to keep your system up to date to avoid unnecessary security risks. Click Here to make sure that you have the latest patches for Windows.
These next two steps are optional, but will provide the greatest protection.
1. Use ANY browser besides Internet Explorer, almost every exploit is crafted to take advantage of an IE weakness. We usually recommend FireFox .
2. Install Sun's Java. It's much more secure than Microsoft's Java Virtual Machine .
It's okay to delete the Hijack This folder if everything is working okay.
After doing all these, your system will be thoroughly protected from future threats.
