I am having quite a time with spyware on the family pc. I recently ran SpyBot S&D which got rid of some of the problems, but on the next startup, there were even more toolbars, things running in bg, etc. Here is the HijackThis logfile:

I seriously dont want to screw anything up. I don't know much on the Spyware side of things, so I throw myself at your feet and leave the problem in all of your competent hands.
Thank you in advance!

These two lines are bad:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [veaeeb] C:\WINDOWS\APPLIC~1\zooxgcrv.exe -QuieT
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winactive] C:\PROGRAM FILES\WINDOW ACTIVE\WINACTIVE.EXE

These two sites tell how to remove the winactive spyware:
