PLEASE SUPPLY RELEVANT INFORMATION:
Operating System Version: Win 98



Im having problems with something that i think is elite toolbar? I dunno. It's creating a lot of popups, every minute or so I get one, its also causing my computer to pause, like all of the memory is being used. Ive tried a few methods to remove it but none have been successful. Here is my hijack log:

okie..
Now Im having a whole new set of problems. I no longer have control of my mouse, my screen has shrunken and the colour is off. I keep getting a pop up about some 800solutions search settings being changed. I am not even sure what that is or why i have it lol. I keep running norton antivirus which did catch a few trojans but now isnt coming up with anything. I also cant run my spyware blaster. Apparently something has been changed so that the database wont load.  Anyways here is my new log ( I hate when people download a bunch of stuff onto your computer without asking)
