Dear Sirs or Madams:

I understand you must be extremely busy, so I apologize in advance for bothering you. I have tried for two weeks now–using every other resource at my disposal–to correct my problems on my own. I HAVE FAILED! Now I humbly seek the expert guidance of the devoted members of forums.tomcoyote.com to help me with my spyware/virus problems.

First off, I run Adaware and Spybot spyware removal programs, as well as Spybot SD resident. They must not be getting it all! In addition, I am using Norton Antivirus 2005 AND Windows Live OneCare for virus removal. However, I have a special problem that I haven't been able to resolve:

Whenever I scan my system for viruses–using ANY software–Windows reboots, interrupting and cancelling the scan. Thus, I can't tell if I have a virus on my computer or not! (I am almost certain that I do–it's probably a virus causing Windows to restart when it is located!) Also, I get pop-ups frequently.

I haven't found anything helpful on Symantec's or Microsoft's websites concerning this issue. And this is one of the reasons that I am coming to you good folks. Here is my HijackThis log file. Thank you all so much in advance:
