That should work no matter what malware may be on your machine.
It's not a good idea for me to work on a post, not seeing the entire log file.

Looking good except for the "O15" entries.
Looks like they're not going away "quietly", so let's get serious with them. <_<
I have attached a files called "fixme.reg".
It contains this data:
Download it it to your desk top as "fixme.reg".REGEDIT4
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\frame.crazywinnings.com]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\frame.crazywinnings.com]
"http"=dword:00000004
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\frame.crazywinnings.com]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\frame.crazywinnings.com]
"http"=dword:00000004
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\static.topconverting.com]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\static.topconverting.com]
"http"=dword:00000004
[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\static.topconverting.com]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\static.topconverting.com]
"http"=dword:00000004
Then, locate fixme.reg on your desktop and it.
You will receive a prompt similar to: "Do you wish to merge the information into the registry?".
Answer 'Yes' and wait for a message to appear similar to "Merged Successfully".
Then reboot and email me a new log file.

Here's my list of things to help prevent future infections:
Items you may wish to consider to harden your defenses against future infections:
Read "How did I get infected in the first place?" here:
http://boards.cexx.org/viewtopic.php?t=957
Download IE-Spyad here:
https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm
IE-Spyad puts over 4000 known malicious web sites into IE's "restricted zone" to help prevent you from getting infected.
Check your browser settings here:
http://browsercheck.qualys.com/index.php
A series of "tests" (and suggested fixes) to help tweak IE's settings to help prevent infections when surfing the web.
Follow safe Internet practices:
1. Keep your virus definitions up to date, and scan your system regularly.
2. Don't open email, or download attachments from unrecognized email addresses.
3. Be careful when downloading email attachments, EVEN FROM PEOPLE YOU KNOW! Many virii, worms, and trojans infect a persons system then immeadiately spread themselves to the people in the infected persons addressbook via email attachments.
4. Be careful downloading files from the Internet. Scan all downloaded files with a reliable UP-TO-DATE antivirus program. Scan "zip" files BEFORE unzipping, and scan all unzipped files BEFORE USING THEM.
5. Keep your Windows and IE current with all the latest patches and updates.
If you want me to help solve your Notepad (or copy/paste) problem, please post in this thread and let me know.
If not, we'll call this one "solved".
Happy Holidays!!!

Jesus is the reason for the season!
Seasons greetings to you and everyone at TC too
I'm amazed
I could do with your help with Notepad. I've looked in accessories and its not there and I've checked my Windows 98 CD and its not there either, so it looks as though I've never used Notepad.
After udating IE, when I open Outlook the following dialog box appears:-
A program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this? If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose "no"
Needless to say I choose no. Am I correct in doing so?
Love your Jesus quote.
Have a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
Cheers

Outlook Error
Let's see if your machine is configured to use Notepad.
Download Registrar Lite from here:
http://www.resplendence.com/download/reglite.exe
Copy and paste the following text into the address bar, then hit 'Go':
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\txtfile\shell\open\command
In the RIGHT pane, on the (default) link, then check in the Value field in the window that opens up.
If configured to use Notepad, it will say this:
%SystemRoot%\NOTEPAD.EXE %1
Please post back, and let me know EXACTLY what is in this Value box.
Now, look for the Notepad.exe file in your "C:\Windows" folder.
If not there, you can download it into that folder from this link:
Merijn.org Windows Files - Click on the "Windows Files" link in the upper left of the screen.
Post back to let me know what was in the Value box, and tell me if you found Notepad on your machine, or you had to download it.
