My mother's PC got infected with the fake AV program called AntiVirus XP 2010 2 days ago while surfing the net / checking her email. Multiple popups appeared and a fake 4-color Windows shield appeared in the system tray.
I have already run several programs per LDTate's post to try to remove it.
See http://forums.whatthetech.com/you_Infected_t106388.html
I have run Defogger, ATF Cleaner, ERUNT, MBAM, GMER (no log was produced though) and DDS...all in SAFE MODE because it was the only way I could do it.
I have logs for HiJackThis, MBAM, and DDS if needed.
I thought what I did would help clear up the matter as most of these are familiar to me when I received help with my laptop. Hopefully I have not messed things up by running these programs. I did not run ComboFix as I understand it can be damaging.
Please help me with instructions of what to do now. When not in SAFE MODE, no desktop icon will launch, so whatever is lurking in the system affects the .exe files.
Thanks in advance.

The PC has not been touched since these logs (HJT, MBAM, DDS) were created on Feb. 11th so the data is still valid.
Um, apparently I ran the log successfully more than I thought so I am posting 3 MBAM logs to show all the infections that were found. That way it will give you more insight.
One is from Feb 9th. Two are from Feb 10th. After that, all MBAM scans have been clean.

Under my mother's account, I cannot launch any .exe program from the desktop.
However, when I switched users and was in my account, I CAN launch .exe programs. I was able to launch and Firefox and OpenOffice.
I switched back to my mother's account once more and I was unable to launch them.
Is it possible that there could be an infection only in her user account and not mine? I thought it would affect all accounts.
Here are the logs for exehelper and DDS:
