Tired of the InqWire

A couple of days ago I have noticed my computer running a bit sluggish and the cursor turning into an hourglass every 20 secs. Also anytime I travel to a website, my friend InqWire or some registry scanner pop-up greets me. I have run AdAware, Spybot, Trend Micro online scanner, and even Webroot Websweeper. The only thing I find are cookies and the such, and I still get these pop-ups. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

If you still need help and haven't posted at another forum, post another log from hijackthis. I will get to it as soon as I can.

Also updating and scanning with Spybot and Ad-aware would be a good idea.
