I am coming to you from my roomate's labtop which is currently besieged with a couple kinds of malware/spyware, maybe even a virus or two that are causing him many problems. So far they are generating numerous pop-ups as well as slowing down his system, and even disabling the cntrl+alt+delete system function. I have run ad-aware, spy-bot search and destroy, CWS shredder, and hijack this, removing a few things in all but CWS. Here is the hijack this log prior to my tinkering. I have no doubt once this computer restarts, though nasty malwares will re-assert themselves into this pc and it will return to it's same problems. I will be looking online for a solution, but here is the hijack this log if it will help anyone help me and my roomateyes I know his system date is set wrong)
