I need a new HJT log to continue.

I also need you to do this:

1. Download About Buster 6.0 and unzip it to your desktop.
2. Reboot into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode, then hit enter.
3. Run AboutBuster 6.0 and select "Begin Removal". Make sure you click "Yes" to every message box that appears.
4. Restart your computer and run AboutBuster one final time. Locate 'Ab LogFile.txt' (... in the same folder as AboutBuster) and post it in your next reply.

We can use this standalone tool to help us further clean the system:

* Download Dr.Web CureIt to the desktop:
ftp://ftp.drweb.com/pub/drweb/cureit/drweb-cureit.exe

• Doubleclick the drweb-cureit.exe file and Allow to run the express scan
• This will scan the files currently running in memory and when something is found, click the yes button when it asks you if you want to cure it. This is only a short scan.
• Once the short scan has finished, mark the drives that you want to scan.
• Select all drives. A red dot shows which drives have been chosen.
• Click the green arrow at the right, and the scan will start.
• Click 'Yes to all' if it asks if you want to cure/move the file.
• When the scan has finished, look if you can click next icon next to the files found:
• If so, click it and then click the next icon right below and select Move incurable as you'll see in next image:
  
  This will move it to the %userprofile%\DoctorWeb\quarantaine-folder if it can't be cured. (this in case if we need samples)
• After selecting, in the Dr.Web CureIt menu on top, click file and choose save report list
• Save the report to your desktop. The report will be called DrWeb.csv
• Close Dr.Web Cureit.
• Reboot your computer!! Because it could be possible that files in use will be moved/deleted during reboot.
• After reboot, post the contents of the log from Dr.Web you saved previously in your next reply.

You may need to flush the dns cache on the infected machine..

Go to start>run and type cmd, then press enter

from the command prompt, type

ipconfig /flushdns

then press enter. Once it has completed, close the command prompt and check connectivity again.

Failing that.....

If you use broadband access, take the affected machine off the network and direct connect it to the access point. See if that improves your lot. If your account has a backup dialup access (many ISPs provide this, some do not), use it to see if the machine will connect that way. It sounds to me more like a connectivity issue through the access points than something solely related to the malware.
