Trojan.Zlob.G keeps coming back after reboot (Win XP)

I am running Windows XP and having great difficulty permanently removing the Trojan.Zlob.G trojan.

After running the CombFix tool all seems well, no more pop-ups and I’m able to regain the use of my browser (IE). However, when I reboot the PC the Trojan.Zlob.G comes back.

Here is the ComboFix log for your review:

It's okay.
How is everything now?

I've rebooted and I'm no longer seeing the trojan.Zlob symptoms.

My McAfee detected something called "Tool-Nir-Cmd". I'm not sure what it is so I've quarantined it. Any idea what that is?

Other then that every thing seems to be okay.

Any thing else I should do?

Thank you so much for your assistance and your VERY prompt response!!!!!!!!!

Hello.
Nircmd.exe is a file dropped by combofix. It's a 3rd party software that's basically like the run command.
While it's not bad, if used incorrectly, it's not good either.

• Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add or Remove Programs and remove all older versions of Java.
  
• Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name.
  - Examples of older versions in Add or Remove Programs:
  - Java 2 Runtime Environment, SE v1.4.2
  - J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0
  - J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 2
  
• Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
  
• Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions.
  
• Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.

Below I have included a number of recommendations for how to protect your computer in order to prevent future malware infections. Please take these recommendations seriously; these few simple steps can stave off the vast majority of spyware problems. As happy as we are to help you, for your sake we would rather not have repeat customers.

1) Please navigate to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and download all the "critical updates" for Windows. This can patch many of the security holes through which attackers can gain access to your computer.

Please either enable Automatic Updates under Start -> Control Panel -> Automatic Updates , or get into the habit of checking for Windows updates regularly. I cannot stress enough how important this is.

2) In order to protect yourself against spyware, you should consider installing and running the following free programs:

Ad-Aware SE
A tutorial on using Ad-Aware to remove spyware from your computer may be found here.

Spybot-Search & Destroy
A tutorial on using Spybot to remove spyware from your computer may be found here. Please also remember to enable Spybot's "Immunize" and "TeaTimer" features.

SpywareBlaster
A tutorial on using SpywareBlaster to prevent spyware from ever installing on your computer may be found here.

SpywareGuard
A tutorial on using SpywareGuard for realtime protection against spyware and hijackers may be found here.

Make sure to keep these programs up-to-date and to run them regularly, as this can prevent a great deal of spyware hassle.

3) Please consider using an alternate browser. Mozilla's Firefox browser is fantastic; it is much more secure than Internet Explorer, immune to almost all known browser hijackers, and also has the best built-in popup blocker (as an added benefit!) that I have ever seen. If you are interested, Firefox may be downloaded from here:
http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
I also recommand the following add-ons for Firefox, they will help keep you safe from malicious scripts or activeX exploits.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865

4) Also make sure to run your antivirus software regularly, and to keep it up-to-date.

5) Finally, consider maintaining a firewall. Some good free firewalls are Kerio, or
Outpost
A tutorial on understanding and using firewalls may be found here.

Please also read Tony Klein's excellent article: How I got Infected in the First Place

Hopefully this should take care of your problems! Good luck.

How do I remove Tool-NirCmd??

McAfee keeps detecting it even after I quarantine and remove it (via McAfee).

Thanks again for all your help!

Hello.
Delete this file:
c:\windows\system32\nircmd.exe

If not, can you tell McAfee to ignore it? nircmd isn't dangerous.
