Wow, uninstalling McAfee seems drastic. Now there's no protection on the machine. Perhaps you'd like to take this opportunity to install something else? I can give you links an excellent freeware AntiVirus. Let me know in this next reply, or reinstall McAfee after running ComboFix, but before the new HijackThis log.
======================================
Before beginning the fix, read this post completely. If there's anything that you do not understand, kindly ask your questions before proceeding. Ensure that there aren't any opened browsers when you are carrying out the procedures below. Save the following instructions in Notepad as this webpage would not be available when you're carrying out the fix.
It is IMPORTANT that you don't miss a step & perform everything in the correct order/sequence.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Disconnect from the internet....pull the plug!
- Disable your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications, usually via a right click on the System Tray icon. They may otherwise interfere with ComboFix.
- Open notepad and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:

Save this as CFScript.txt
Referring to the picture above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe
- Your desktop may go blank. This is normal. It will return when ComboFix is done. ComboFix may reboot your machine. This is normal.
- When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply
Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Ensure your AntiVirus and AntiSpyware applications are re-enabled. A reboot should have done this.
- Re-establish an internet connection.
- Open HijackThis and click on 'Do a System Scan and save a Logfile'. Save the log file and post it here.
