you can TRY HJT, but be sure to make a seperate folder on C: drive and opening HJT from there so you can have recourse in case you delete the wrong thing. Then you can paste the results into http://hijackthis.de/ and then google your questionable results to see if they are harmful to your PC.
Did you try the stuff in my 1st response yet?
