Can't shake Favoriteman!

Expand Post »
For about a week I've been trying to shake the Favoriteman virus. It's there when I run my spyware but it seems to have no real imapct on my system. I do get the occasional change to my brower toolbar, or the addition of a mystery link to a games site, but no real ill-effects. I try to remove it with Ad-aware, Spybot S&D, and CWShredder (even in safe mode), but it comes back. Ad-aware says that the file im64.dll cannot be removed from my sys32 because it is not a "valid image".??? Is there some way to get rid of this bug? Attached is my most recent HJT log, created after using the above noted cleaners:
