Hello There . . . .
Can someone help me out Pleaseeee…

Was surfing the web and some pop ups appeared . . . when I tryed to close these windows couldn't . . . So There's where everything started . . .

I have Windows XP home edit., at that time I had Norton 2005 running and had updates on auto. But this didn't stop the bugs.

I ran Adaware Personal Edit. and cleaned up. Restarted my laptop and the Iexplorer opens up by itself.
I deactivated Norton and Install AVG . . . ran that with the same luck….
I later ran Nod32 . . . it showed 38 bugs and cleaned . . . but when I reset my machine . … Iexplorer starts up by itself…

From What I could see . . . its a Downloader Agent 11.q and Agent 12

So I found in some other place this HijackThis I downloaded and runned it . . .

Can Anyone help me with this . . . cause I really don't know anything about this , , ,

This is what I got back . . .
