Hi! I'm using Windows 98 and a few days ago I started getting many popups from sites such as "ads1.revenue.net" and "ad-a-w-a-r-e.???". I have Zone Alarm, AVG and Ad-aware on my computer. I also got something called Cookie Wall and I started using Spybot. According to them, my system is clean except for one recurring problem on Spybot called _____________________.

These problems started when I tryed downloading the update for Kazaa (not a smart move, I know!). AVG detected a couple viruses in the Kazaa download so I cancelled the download and cleaned the system. One of the viruses that was more difficult to remove was Downloader.XrenA. I then tried to get Torrent, I didn't like how it was working so deleted it. I tried to make sure all the files for both programs were gone from the temp files, but don't know if I succeeded. This was when the problem with the popups started.

Under the security options in IE6 I started putting in the popup sites as restricted sites so that the information wasn't downloaded each time. A couple programs were installed on my computer without my knowledge (Zone Alarm caught one of them, but not one called "My Daily Horoscope". Soon after I started blocking the restricted sites I got Spybot and it found some problems and fixed them.

The next problem was that RunDll32.exe started trying to access the internet "as an application" according to Zone Alarm. I kept denying it access and then IE started not working completely. I can open the program, it tries to go to the home page or google or wherever, but then is redirected by something in c:\windows\?????????.dll\?????? I can't make out what it says because it is only shown quickly in the status bar at the bottom.

There were some other random problems throughout the time such as my system becoming unstable and when I try to shut down, certain programs "aren't responding" and i can wait or end task. These programs are "unregister", "McDetect" and a blank one. There's also some strange files I don't recognize on my computer such as NicTechNetwork, DJNDI.dll, Wrapperouter, Glb70dl. I tried repairing IE and running, AVG, Spybot, AdAware, etc in safe mode (multiple times). Any ideas?

Sorry this is so long, but I figured it best to explain everything! Thanks for any help you can give me! My hijack this log is as follows:
