Hi

When using internet explorer my system slows up and sometimes crashes. I get popups on virtually every page i open and on any internet sites i open there are hidden links to popups. None of the popup blockers available stop the popups. I think it is something to do with 'winfixer', which has somehow apperead on my system. I have tried to get rid of it but cannot. I have installed and run all the antivirus and similar software that you recommend but none are able to solve the problem. Here is my latest 'hijackthis' log.....

Please help!!
