When the machine is in your posession once again, try this tool instead and let's see what it can ferret out.

Download, install & launch - Webroot SpySweeper (Trial) (8.3 MB)

When SpySweeper starts, please accept any prompts to update definitions.

Disconnect from the internet.

Launch & use the diagnostic version of SpySweeper & configure it as follows:

Click on the Start button
After it has finished scanning, click the Next button
Allow Spysweeper to reboot your machine to remove the infected files.

## IMPORTANT - do not use your computer as you scan.

# Reboot back to Normal Mode

Launch SpySweeper & select Results from the left pane
Click the 'Session Log' tab & choose Save to File to create a log.

Post that in your next reply along with a new HJT log.
