Appears to be randomly named malware. Please Click here!, and follow the recommendations in the guide.

If you're still having trouble, We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool, Hijack This. Follow the instructions in step five of this guide, and post your log as a new topic in the Hijack This forum. It will get a better response there from the people most qualified to analyze logs.

Most of what Hijack This lists lists will be harmless or even essential, DO NOT delete or modify anything yet! Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.

I meant prefetch folder, not whatever prefetxg means.

Be sure you're able to see system and hidden folders, then search your system for this file. If found, submit it here: http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus
