Click here to download Ad-Aware SE and install. Before scanning click on "check for updates now" to make sure you have the latest reference file. Click "Start", select "Perform Full System scan" and "Next" to start the scan. When the scan is finished, the screen will tell you if anything has been found, click "Next". The bad files will be listed, right click the pane and click "Select all objects" - this will put a check mark in the box at the side, click "Next" again and click "OK" at the prompt "# objects will be removed. Continue?".

Reboot when done. Rescan with HJT and post a new log here so that any remnants can be removed manually.

Thanks for the help– I deeply appreciate it.

Followed advice and performed an Ad-aware Full Scan. Thereafter, ran HJT again. The following is a copy of the log:

Create a new folder called C:HijackThis, move the HijackThis.exe file into the new folder and run it from there. This is necessary to ensure you have backups should anything go wrong.

Make sure that you have no browser windows open as this could prevent the fix from working properly. Open HijackThis, scan and when complete, remove the following entries by checking the box to the left and clicking 'fixed checked':

Click here, for instructions on how to enable hidden files and folders to be visible. After enabling, reboot into safe mode by tapping F8 after the BIOS has loaded, find and delete the following:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\winpack.exe

Reboot when done, rescan with HJT and post a new log here.

The last suggestions helped solve the IE issues– I can now use IE without it redirecting me to "http:///"! Many thanks for the time and effort.

The following is the latest HJT log from my system:

Just this straggler. Open HijackThis, scan and when complete, remove the following entries by checking the box to the left and clicking 'fixed checked':

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [winpack] C:\WINDOWS\system32\winpack.exe

Reboot when done, rescan with HJT and post a new log here.
