Yesterday I inadvertently downloaded that Freeprod.com toolbar for Internet Explorer via AIM. When the toolbar appeared, there would be a black circle that would download information and then some IE popup would pop up to register the toolbar and nothing else would happen after that. The software did not displace Firefox as my main browser or change my homepage automatically unlike some Freeprod.com problems I've heard about. Using information I gathered from similar topics on other tech forums, I was able to get rid of the toolbar and keep it from reloading on IE.

Today (and I think I wasn't supposed to do this) I deleted the toolbar.dll file that installed the Freeprod.com toolbar to IE. The toolbar itself has disappeared from my IE, but I also recieved some gambling spyware ad. I closed this ad and then a message popped up that read something along the lines of "Do you want to view other gambling casinos?" I clicked no and another spyware ad about online casinos popped up.

I ran AdAware and Spybot scans. AdAware found only some cookies, but Spybot found a Windows AdTools file in my C drive--the file is C:\WINDOWS\system32\ide21201.vxd.

Here is my HijackThis logfile:
