Hi again Vinny

Please read these instructions carefully and then print out or copy this page to Notepad in order to assist you when carrying out the fix. You should not have any open browsers when you are following the procedures below.


Disable AVG Anti Spyware's Guard
Please disable AVG Anti Spyware's Guard, as it may hinder the removal of some entries. You can re-enable it after you're clean.
  • Double-click the icon on Desktop to launch AVG
  • On the top of the main screen click Shield
  • Click the word active to change it to inactive
  • Exit AVG


Download CWShredder and run it. Click Check for Update. Click on 'Fix' (it will automatically fix anything it finds for you) and then click OK. If it asks if you want to delete a certain random file, choose No and post that filename here. Let it finish the scan and then hit Next and Exit.



Reboot
Reboot your system in Safe Mode.
  • Restart the computer. The computer begins processing a set of instructions known as BIOS.
  • After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, press F8 (dependent on your system this may be F5 or another key)
  • Instead of Windows loading as normal, a menu should appear
  • Use the arrow key to highlight Safe Mode and press Enter.



HijackThis Entries
Open Hijack This and click on Scan. Check the following entries (if they still exist) (make sure you do not miss any)

O2 - BHO: SSL encrypt - {746455FE-D059-47e7-AF0E-140E03F5A447} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\nsa10AB.dll
O2 - BHO: Banner Rotator - {E954DB82-1533-4714-92F2-59C98D5C18CC} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\brrotate.dll
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [adstart] "iexplore.exe" "http://iesettingsupdate"


Please remember to close all other windows, including browsers then click Fix checked.



File Deletions
Delete the following Files indicated in RED if they still exist.

C:\WINDOWS\system32\nsa10AB.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\brrotate.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ehlzi.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ehlzic.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\qrkyfc.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\AutoSearch.dll

C:\WINDOWS\system32\six.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32\joc0e388.sys
C:\WINDOWS\system32\nsu22.dll
C:\WINDOWS\uni_7eh.exe



Reboot
Reboot your system in Normal Mode.



Please run combofix again.



Run another online scan with Panda.
