BTW, how can I learn what should and should not be in a HJT log so I don't always have to come here looking for help?

Thanks in advance

This thread shows a classic rogue-popup / fake-alert situation. posted diagnostic output from two tools and noted the popups stopped briefly but then the system still needed help. Temporary disappearance of symptoms does not guarantee removal. Rogue scanners and browser helper objects often lie dormant, hide parts of themselves, or re-install on reboot. A methodical cleanup is required rather than waiting for the issue to go away.

Recommended recovery checklist:

  1. Isolate the machine (disconnect network).
  2. Backup personal documents and media to an external drive; avoid copying programs or installers.
  3. Disable System Restore to clear infected restore points, then reboot into Safe Mode.
  4. Update signatures on a trusted AV and run a full scan; follow with a current second-opinion antimalware scan.
  5. Use specialized on-demand cleaners or a bootable rescue scanner if items persist.
  6. Clear browser temp files, remove unknown toolbars/BHOs, and reset browser settings.
  7. If removal is uncertain or backdoors are suspected, plan a clean OS reinstall.

Notes on reading HijackThis-style logs: focus on entries that launch at startup, BHOs or toolbars, services with unknown publishers or odd file paths, and Run keys that point into Temp folders or users folders. Entries marked as “missing” are often stale references but should be verified before removal. Correlate suspicious filenames with an online multi-engine scan and use tools like Process Explorer or Autoruns to trace the live process and file location. Never run removal actions suggested by popups or by unfamiliar sites.

Because reported a partial return of problems, persistence is likely. If posting logs for community help, include OS details, what scans were run, exact symptoms and timestamps, and paste the full, unedited diagnostic logs so helpers can compare before/after states. A reinstall is the safest final option when persistent signs of compromise remain.

EDIT:

After reading some other topics I noticed many people are having the same problem as me, or at least something similar, and I think I will need to scan with SmitFraudFix, so here's my log for that:
