a file or program whatever it is, i think malware, called Dyfuca, if we sound that out i'm sure we can tell it's not very nice therefore it's not a good thing on my computer. however, i've had spybot fix it, i've ran adaware countless times, i've done an online virus scan even right before i used the spybot this time, and none picked it up. but i know, if i fix it, it will appear again. so here is my HJT log please if there is anything that i'm missing that could be stopping me from removing this permantly please let me know. thanks

i restarted the computer in safe mode and ran HJT and fixed the two no name no file things as was told to before and forgot to do, and this is the new log without those in there. the dyfuca wasn't there when i redid the spybot after HJT scan as well. i don't know if those two things might have had part in it or not, but if there's more i'm missing again please let me know. thanks

i'm sorry i almost forgot please forgive me for my emptibrain today. when i go to msconfig, there are two things in the list that are deffinatly NOT normal in there. there are 2 items that have no file no decription after it at all. just the item in the start up list. one is mswspl and the other is really really really really weird looking and i've never seen it in the past and i've done msconfig many many times in the past. and it just appeared there not too long ago and if there's no info or file/folder or anything i can't get rid of it. the 2nd item i can only describe as it is a symbol of some kind. i played with my number key and alt button to see if i could find something similar but to no avail. the item is as 1 symbol 1 thin vertical line, next to it a thick verticle line, next to that is what looks like a thick letter E with a tiny diagnal line right above it. not like way above but like it's part of the E like ummm let me see if i can do something with the number key here.á ok like on the a how it has that little line above it only it almost looks connected that's what the little line looks like above the capitol bold E ¶ ok this is as close as i can come with the 2nd example i have done, the ¶ ignore the dark dot there, it would be like looking at it like 2 seperate lines first this like that and the end looking like a bold lowercase l with the bold E right next to it and the little mark above it. oh one more thing, the bold line is a little lower than the first thin line and the E. but like i said there is no info next to it no file just blank space and only the item in the list to be checked or unchecked. any idea's????
