Hi alaus67

First, Counerspy is ok to run if you choose to, just be sure not to install it in a temp directory.
CleanUp will remove the temp files it finds and delete on reboot the one’s in use. This however will not stop your computer from recreating some temp files at start up. You have run it and rebooted so you will have removed any junk files.

Your log looks good now
You can turn System Restoreon now.
Are you having any problems?

This is a good time to set up protection against further attacks. Read How Did I Get Infected In The First Place?. You need an antivirus that is continually updated, a good firewall, a spyware blocker such as Spyware Blaster, and a real time spyware program such as Spyware Guard, to prevent spyware intrusions. IE-Spyad is another excellent program that places over 4000 websites and domains in the IE Restricted list, which will help prevent attempts to infect your system. All of the above have good free versions available. However, be very wary with any security software that is advertised in popups or in other ways. They are not only usually of no use, but often have malware in them.



More information and downloads are available at the following links:
