    So earlier today my pc had a bit of a hiccup and went super slow for about 5-6 minutes and then after that my new malware problem began.

    I'm getting popups all the time now in both IE and FireFox, and any time I try to click on a link from a google search, it redirects me to one of many random anti-spyware tools without any real consistency.

    Ad-aware and NOD32 didn't solve my problem, so I'm trying here.

    Here is my Hijackthis logfile:

    heres wat i would do
    backup everything to external hd or cd or flashdrives
    reinstall windows or os i think ur runin windows anyways reinstall if u have the disk if u dont ill get to that
    goto the store buy bitdefender or kaspersky
    when ur comp is all nice an new scan everything that u backed up before u reinstall all the programs

    and that should work

    if you dont have the disk
    buy kaspersky or bitdefender
    scan

    if nothing

    bakcup all programs like i said earlier but instead reinstalling windows do a system restore but i must say out of all the time i restored my comp to an earlier date it really didnt do much

    Reinstalling your OS should generally be a last resort, just because it's so time consuming.

    I'm not that much of an expert on Hijack this logs yet, but two objects stood out as suspicious:

    O2 - BHO: {885ad9e9-656e-45e9-80a4-dc83b640ed36} - {63de046b-38cd-4a08-9e54-e6569e9da588} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\tnfpkw.dll
    O2 - BHO: (no name) - {6D794CB4-C7CD-4c6f-BFDC-9B77AFBDC02C} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\jkkIBsTM.dll

    The seemingly random nature of those names, and the fact that they are
    browser-helper-objects raises suspicions in my mind. You could try temporarily deleting them and see if that helps. If you cant delete them, try booting in safe mode, and then deleting them. Don't permanently delete them though, until you're sure they are the source of the problem.

    I ran Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware program and the problem is now gone. Thanks.

    I agree with just about everything said.

    Whenever I run a HJT log, I Google any exe or dll file that looks suspicious and isn't in the folder of a known program file. The fact that those two files are seemingly randomly named and in the system32 folder would definitely set up the red flag in my eyes as well.

    download the free returnil and use that anytime you surf the internet. Right now you have some sort of "vulnerability" on your security setup. Anything virus/malware that can corrupt firefox is something that is a serious threat.
    Returnil is your last line of defense, anything that bypasses your security won't defeat returnil, a simple reboot will delete all traces of the virus/malware that was running in your computer while on the internet.

    My system
    windows xp
    1.zone alarm basic firewall
    2.avg 8.0 free antivirus
    3.firefox browser
    4.returnil

    Nothing has defeated my system in over a year. With returnil running in the background, you should be good until you fix your vulnerability in your security setup.
