"System Security" headaches

Hello.
That didn't work right.

After uploading, it gives you a URL on the page, not the link from your browser address bar.

Sorry, hope this works:

I screwed the last one up. Let's try again:

Hello.

Now open a new notepad file.
Input this into the notepad file:

Rootkit::
c:\windows\system32\drivers\hmaawpjpgy.sys
c:\windows\system32\drivers\str.sys

Registry::
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\mjqusdj]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"19721334"=-

Folder::
c:\programdata\19721334

File::
c:\windows\system32\drivers\smss.exe_

Save this as CFScript.txt, save it to your desktop also.
Then drag and drop CFScript.txt into combofix as seen below:


This will open combofix again, agree to it's terms and allow it to run.
It may want to reboot after it's done. (It will warn you if it wants to)
Post the resulting log back here.

So far so good. Here's the link:

One major glitch: When I attempted to open Task Manager or Control Panel I get an error message: "Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion."

Could be the malware causing it, not sure yet.
Were gonna need to run another script, but first, lets uninstall a few things.

• Open HijackThis.
  
• When Hijack This opens, click "Open the Misc Tools section"
  
• Then select "Open Uninstall Manager"
  
• Click on "Save List..." (generates uninstall_list.txt)
  
• Click Save, copy and paste the results in your next post.

I can't access the Control Panel.

I got it in safe mode, but when I click to uninstall, it tells me: "The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed."

Darn, forgot about that.
Oh well, just run the CFScript for now.

I'm working on it now. I may get interrupted, but now is a good time to say thanks for hanging in there and helping me out. I will post back when I get it all together.

Here's the log:

http://rapidshare.com/files/267483011/combofixlog2.txt.html

In a further good news/bad news development, I went back into Control Panel (this time I was able to access it in "regular", not safe, mode. I was then able to uninstall the three programs above without any problem. The bad news is that I am not able to access web pages with either IE or Firefox, even though the network icon in the system tray says the laptop is connected to my home wireless network, with five bars, no less.

Hello.
The log shows Viewpoint still present, uninstall this too: Viewpoint Media Player

I thought I uninstalled it yesterday, and it does not show up in the list of installed programs.

Hello.
How is the machine running now?

Everything seems to be good, Belahzur. I seem to be able to access everything, and a winsock repair brought the internet back. One last time, I want to thank you for the large amount of attention you devoted to my problem, and especially for solving it. It's people like you who make the web worth coming back to. Thanks for everything.
