Thanks suRoot, never heard of it but it looks promising. As a sidenote, Norton Anti-Virus isn't incredibly horrible, but Norton Personal Firewall is the worst resource-hogging, registry-editing piece of **** I have ever seen ;)

Hi allyoop54,
First of all- welcome to TechTalk! :)
We ask that members not tag their questions on to a thread previously started by another member (regardless of how similar your problem might seem). Not only does it divert the focus of the thread away from the original poster's problem, but it also makes it less likely that you yourself will get the individual attention that you need.
Please start your own thread and post your question there. When you do, please try to give us as much specific info as possible regarding the problem (exact error messages, system specs, etc.).
For a full description of our posting guidelines and general rules of conduct, please see this page:

Thanks for understanding.

allyoop54,
I think your problem might fall into the "regardless of how similar your problem might seem" category that I mentioned in my last post.
In other words, in your case this might not be a question of infection by malicious programs. A Google search for the error you are getting returns at least one link which specifically relates the error message to an install of the autoshink program. Read the suggestion in the 4th post (by mrbass) in the following thread and also check out the link he posted there:
