I then began loading Ad-Aware and Spybot S&D when everything was loaded again. But now it was just acting wierder. Tasks kept freezing, installations would not complete unless they were the first tasks performed after a reboot. And even worse, I could not open Taskman or MSconfig, they would close as soon as they were opened. So after getting Ad-Aware and Spybot installed I ran the updates and scanned removing what they found. The problem persisted. So i downloaded HijackThis. And just like Taskman and MSconfig.....it closed as soon as it was opened.
So I downloaded some other tools, Cleanup, CWShredder and Ewido. Cleanup froze after running for more than a few minutes. CWShredder found one object and removed it. Ewido updated and scanned cleaning/removing everything it could except for something effecting MSConfig32.exe.
I booted into safe mode and ran everything again. In Safe Mode I was able to run everything normally (TaskMan, msconfig, Cleanup, etc...). Everything ran perfectly. I boot into normal mode now and can run Taskman, msconfig and I'm having no issue with things freezing.
So that is where I am at now. i have run all windows updates up to SP2 (I want to make sure everything is good before I upgrade to that). So here's the Hijack log file I was hoping could get reviewed so I know if I'm cleaned out or not.
Thanks.
