Win32 viruses infecting .exe files - hijacker log

[jbennicoff]

The New Poly Win32 virus is infecting any new software I attempt to install on my machine. As I install the software, a McAfee dialogue appears that detects the virus and states it cannot be cleaned - I can quarantine or delete the file.

I have updated my DAT and engine files, run McAfee in safe mode, disabled my system restore and rebooted, emptied my deleted items and quarantined files, and cleared my Internet Explorer's cache - all to no avail. I have also removed calsp.dll from my system and have run several antivirus scans (and spyware scans - spybot). STILL no luck.

In addition, I attempted to download and install the latest version of hijack this ... As I did so, the hijack this file became infected with W32/generic:worm!p2p. I attemtped this several times from different sites with the same result. Therefore, I was forced to download and use the old version.

Can someone please help? I have attached my system details and hijacker log below.

McAfee VirusScan 9.0, build number 9.0.10 (as part of Internet Security 2005)
DAT and engine files 4.0.4388
MS XP SP2, 768MB RAM, Dell Dimension 2600
McAfee firewall installed
I do not know where the file is residing - possibly in active memory

Please delete your temporary files by deleting all files and folders that are in those folders (do not delete the temp folder itself) like for example

Also delete your Temporary Internet Files, be sure to also select delete all offline content.

Do a virus scan Please do an online scan, 2 would be better,

Or this as a full download without any unzipping required
http://www.downloads.subratam.org/CWShredder.exe
http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/tools/CWShredder.exe

We have found that some of the CWS infections can be removed better from safe mode, rather than normal mode.
To get to safe mode use the F8 key while booting the machine. Detailed instructions from :-
