Hi. Think I have removed most of the bad processes. Could someone look over this log and let me know if anything else should be fixed. Thanks in advance.

You've still got a few Gremlins in your system; please do the following:

You will need to close/quit all web browser programs and disconnect from the Internet for much of the following, so you should print out these instructions or save them into a text file with Notepad.

1. Download and install the following utilities:

CCleaner - www.ccleaner.com
ewido Anti-malware - http://www.ewido.net/en/download/

- Open ewido. In the main screen, click "Update" and click "Start Update". After the update process completes, exit from Ewido.

- Open Windows Defender and check for/install the most current updates. Close the program after you've verified this.

- Open AVG and make sure that it has the most current virus definitions installed. Again- don't scan yet, just close the program once it's updated.

At this point, please close/quit all open programs and disconnect from the Internet.

2. Run another HijackThis scan, place a check mark in the boxes to the left of the following entries, and then click the "fix checked" button:

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,SearchURL = about:blank
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Default_Search_URL = about:blank
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,SearchURL = about:blank
R0 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = about:blank
R0 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Local Page = about:blank
R1 - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Start Page_bak = about:blank
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [win3208341181720] C:\WINDOWS\win3208341181720.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [BrowserUpdateSched] C:\WINDOWS\system32\qwintqaf.exe CORN001
O4 - HKCU\..\RunServices: [Load Functions] c:\windows\system32\kikl\kolder.exe c:\windows\system32\kikl\dirote.exe
O4 - Startup: Zeno.lnk = C:\WINDOWS\system32\qwintqaf.exe
O20 - Winlogon Notify: OptimalLayout - C:\WINDOWS\system32\fprs0397e.dll (file missing)


3. Reboot into Safe Mode (you get to the safe mode boot option by hitting the F8 key just as your computer is starting up).

- Open Windows Explorer, and in the Folder Options->View settings under the Tools menu, select "show hidden files and folders", and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and "Hide extentions for known file types".


* Run CCleaner.
- Go to Options-> Advanced: Uncheck "Only delete files in Windows Temp folders older than 48 hours"
- Go to Options>CustomFolders>Add Folder>Navigate to these folders (click on bold file once and hit OK) :
* C:\Windows\Temp
* C:\Windows\Prefetch
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\ (This will delete all your cached internet content including cookies.)
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Local Settings\Temp
* C:\Documents and Settings\<any other user's Profile>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other user's Profile>\Local Settings\Temp
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Your Profile>\Cookies
* C:\Documents and Settings\<Any other users Profile>\Cookies
Hit OK

- In left pane, scroll down to "Advanced, Custom Folders", put a check in Custom Folders
- Click on Run Cleaner. It may take a while for the program to perform its cleaning, so be patient. Close the program when it has finished.

- Run AVG, Windows Defender, and ewido; have the programs fix all malicious items they find.
When ewido finds the first malicious object on your system, it will ask you if it should clean it. When it asks this, put a checkmark in the lower left corner of the box that says "Perform action on all infections", then choose clean and click OK.
Save the log file that ewido will create after it finishes scanning; you'll be including that log in your next post here.

- Open Windows Explorer again, look for the following files, and delete them is they still exist:
C:\WINDOWS\win3208341181720.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\qwintqaf.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\fprs0397e.dll

- Delete the following folder entirely:
c:\windows\system32\kikl


4. Empty your Recycle Bin, reboot normally, run HijackThis again, and post the new log. Also post the log that ewido generated.
