After much research I know what happened here, and a post related to my inability to access antivirus software webpages drew me to this post: http://www.computing.net/answers/se... Based on the help provided, I downloaded and ran SDFix (in Safe Mode) as well as Hijack This. I have logs for both. At this point I CAN access antivirus sw sites, but I wanted someone to advise whether or not I'm ready to install AVG and connect to the internet or if there are further steps required. Thanks in advance!

Please post both of the logs.

Here's who behind this BS. I have received this same virus and BOTH times have traced it to communist/marxist "social justice" or "progressive education" groups. They attempt to make money, hoping that you'll purchase their "AntiVirus" programs. Don't fall for it. (In one case, it even disabled my ability to run my SpyBot program so I had to download another free program-Malbytes anti-malware program. I took the extra precaution of right-clicking on it and scanning for viruses first.) Check out AdBusters.com to get an idea of who these people are and why they "jam" you with viruses. Simply put, they see America's "consumerism" as the enemy. To you, cars and computers make your life easier. To these radicals, they're the enemy and the cause of poverty and every other social ill.
