Win2000pro - Elastica MP3 Search leads to Pop Ups & Downloads Galore

on thursday evening i was using internet explorer searching for an mp3 of a song using google. this is exactly what i typed ... elastica connection free mp3 ... it was the first option on the search results. when i clicked the link (which i can provide you if it would be helpful), my computer automatically downloaded something and said that it would need to restart. i did nothing and everything seemed to be ok. then within about a minute i started getting pop ups galore. I knew that I must have a virus, so I ran CW Shredder, Spybot S&D and Adaware ... it appeared that I had a virus called "BookedSpace", which I googled and found on Symantec and other web sites.

So I decided to shut down my computer and let the Norton AntiVirus Corporate Edition running on our office server try to solve whatever problem that i may have when I logged in in the morning. Norton did not solve anything in the morning so I called the IT consultant for our company. He recommended that I run Adaware, Spybot S&D & Counter Spy, which I did.

He also recommended that I download and run Mozilla Firefox in lieu of IE, which I did.

These programs seemed to do a pretty good job getting rid of the problems, but they kept returning. Plus the Counter Spy program has an blocker so after I installed it I started noticing that about every 30 seconds or so the Counter Spy program would advise me that a new program was trying to install on my machine. It asked if I would like to block or delete (one or the other depending on the download) I would say yes and run a scan using counter spy. Every time I ran a new scan I would find many of the same programs had installed themselves.

This is a list of some of those that have been found.

Clicks Adware
ISearch.Toolbar
ISearch.DesktopSearch
eZula.TopText
TracePlus Ethernet 3.05.00
Bundleware
Virtumondo
MX-Targeting Adware
Vx2.ZServ.Trojan
Vx2.Narrator Toolbar
Vx2.ABetterInternet
VX2.ABetterInternet.Transponder.Ceres
Vx2.DLMax
VirtualBouncer

There are others too ...

Anyway I have gone through all of the steps in the "Please, Read This Before Posting A Hijackthis Log" and I have the following information. Per your request "I used the HijackThis Analyzer program to get the "new" log"

I am just praying that one of you people can help me.

HERE IS MY HJT LOG FILE:
