Welcome DrEvil7171 <_<

It's recommended you move Hijack This to its own folder (i.e. HJT)

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.

Reboot in safemode (by tapping F8 at startup and selecting safemode from the menu). 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.

C:\PROGRA~1\CLOCK1~1\MATH32HOLE.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [window extra] C:\PROGRA~1\CLOCK1~1\MATH32HOLE.exe

Delete the folder in bold:
C:\Program Files\Clock... (the name's been abbreviated)

Your welcome <_<

How do you prevent spyware from being installed again? We strongly recommend installing SpywareBlaster. It's free, will prevent spyware from being installed and consumes no system resources. It also places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will impair attempts to infect your system. More info and download is available at:
SpywareBlaster: http://www.javacools...areblaster.html
