I have been trying for 2 days to remove spyware from my computer. It started when a tool bar appeared on my browser, my homepage being set to about:blank and some p*rn sites added to my favourites list.

I manage to remove the toolbar and about:blank from my internet explorer but with the spyware I am still getting Strip poker pop ups, microsoft security center - claiming I have zero spyware protection and they offer their removal tool,some weird online scan that track my ip address and recommend me their removal tool and a ballon that appear at the bottom of my startup toolbar recommending the same thing.

I connect to a network through a modem.

To try and solve the problem I did theses steps

1) Ran CWSHREDDER

2) Ran Ad aware

3) Ran Spybot

4) Ran Trend Micro free online virus scan

THis my HJT log:

Press Ctrl/Alt/Del, are those 2 processes running?
unlodctl.exe
nlsfuncs.exe
You need to "End Task" or "End Process" on those before you try deleting them.

[Swfit]

The two process cannot be find in the window task manager.
