hitbox, elitebar, xflive spyware keeps reappearing

I have run Microsoft AntiSPyware and Ad-Aware and SpyBot and even when deleted these keep returning. Here's my HJT. I also removed the BHO but it keeps coming back. I've followed the cleaning instructions but can't get rid of this crap. Is there any way to prevent getting spyware other than not using the internet? I even have an unknown Firefox bookmark spyware that just came up. Please HELP!!

Can you please do the following.

===============

Please visit at least two of the following sites for an online virus scan:

BitDefender Free Online Virus Scan
http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php
Make sure you tick AutoClean under Scan Options.

Panda ActiveScan
http://www.pandasoftware.com/activescan/com/activescan_principal.htm
Make sure you tick Disinfect automatically under Scan Options.

Housecall at TrendMicro
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp
Make sure you tick Auto Clean.
When it completes, post back the full filename of any files that cannot be cleaned or deleted.

eTrust Antivirus Web Scanner
http://www3.ca.com/securityadvisor/virusinfo/scan.aspx

===============

Next, Open a command prompt by:

1. Clicking "Start", then "Run...".
2. Enter "cmd" (without the quotes).
3. Enter "services.msc" (without the quotes).

-

Now, locate and 'stop' the following services, if present:

AOL Instant Messenger (AOL Instant Messenger)

Look carefully, since the name of the service (above) can be anywhere in the entry; also be careful not to 'stop' any required system services. Once stopped, set this service to disabled.

===============

Run HiJackThis, click "Scan", then check(tick) the following, if present:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://www.directsearchzone.com/sp2.php
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\blank.htm

O23 - Service: AOL Instant Messenger (AOL Instant Messenger) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\USBSubsystem

Now, close all instances of Internet Explorer and any other windows you have open except HiJackThis, click "Fix checked".

===============

Locate and delete the following item(s), if present. Make sure you are able to view system and hidden files/ folders:

folders...

C:\Program Files\PartyPoker

files...

C:\windows\mrjj.exe
C:\windows\System32\shiimt.exe
C:\WINDOWS\USBSubsystem

-

Note that some of these file(s)/folder(s) may or may not be present. If present, and cannot be deleted because they're 'in use', try deleting them in " Safe Mode ".

-

Reboot.

===============

After rebooting, rescan with hijackthis and post back a new log. Please let me know how your pc is now.

Here's my new hjt log. I can't find the file c:/windows/usbsystem to delete and I am viewing hidden files and folders. Please advise. This is so out of control. I never really had problems when I had AOL. Ever since I got Roadrunner, I think I've had problems.
