Hi everybody!

This is my first time posting to this or any sort of technical forum. I appreciate any help you can give me. My computer has been going slow, Internet Explorer has been kicking me out, and it no longer stays in hibernate or standby mode. Also, I've been getting Winfixer popups and my computer occasionally makes noises like I'm clicking something with the mouse even when I'm not touching it.

I actually called a professional to repair this, but then I started thinking that I might save a LOT of money by trying this first. Thanks for all your help.

Here's my HJT log:

Welcome to GTG.

Please print out or copy this page to Notepad. Make sure to work through the fixes in the exact order it is mentioned below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before proceeding with the fixes. You should 'not' have any open browsers when you are following the procedures below.

Please download VundoFix.exe at http://www.atribune....ds/VundoFix.exe to your desktop.

* Double-click VundoFix.exe to extract the files.
* After the files are extracted, please reboot your computer into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key (or F5 in some machines) until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode then hit enter.
* Once in safe mode open the VundoFix folder and doubleclick on KillVundo.bat
* Please type the following file path (make sure to enter it exactly as below!):

C:\WINDOWS\AppPatch\runsys.dll

* Press Enter, then press the F6 key, then press Enter one more time to continue with the fix.
* When asked for a second path, enter -> C:\WINDOWS\AppPatch\sysnur.*
* Press Enter, then press the F6 key, then press Enter one more time to continue with the fix.
* The fix will run then HijackThis will open.
* In HijackThis, please place a check next to the following items and click FIX CHECKED:

Open Cleanup! by double-clicking the icon on your desktop (or from the Start > All Programs menu).
Set the program up as follows:

Move the arrow down to 'Custom CleanUp!'
Put a check next to the following (Make sure nothing else is checked!):
