I have been infected with malware that automatically changes my homepage to sogoogle.com. I have tried using spyware and anti-virus programs (Spybot, AdAware SpyDoctor, CA EZ Antivirus) to try to get rid of it but they didn't work. Please help me. Here is a copy of my HijackThis logfile

Scan again with HijackThis and check the following items:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winmouse] c:\WINDOWS\system\winmouse.exe

After checking these items, close all browser windows except HijackThis and click "Fix checked".

Make sure all hidden files and folders are visible (Instructions )
Reboot your computer into safe mode (Instructions)

Find and delete these files and folders (if they are still there):
c:\WINDOWS\system\winmouse.exe <= this file

Reboot your computer back into normal mode and post a new HijackThis log,

Let me know if any problems persist.
