    Yes. If not, reboot like you did last time.

    I didn't see it in your ComboFix log and the report you posted is not from AVGAS. :)

    Wow, this thing has your computer by the jewels!

    We can try something to get those files back. I was lurking on another forum the other day and a poster couldn't open exe files because of malware. The helper gave him a reg file to fix the problem. Although, 4 days later, the poster ended up reformatting because the problem came back. I'm not saying it would work for you, but it's your choice if you would like to try it. I will send the reg file your way if so.

    Other than that, I would say reformat anyway. You've got more than one backdoor and complicated ones I must say. Backdoors are serious, yours in specific include(d) a variant of WoW and a variant of LegMir.

    LegMir is more serious than WoW and allows others to access your computer, but both are password stealers.

    Read here for more info about the WoW trojan.
    Read here for more info about LegMir.

    Personally, if that were my computer I'd just start over. Many experts believe after a computer is infected with a backdoor the computer can not be trusted again unless you reformat the HD.

    You say you're tired of reformatting so I assume you've done it before. Was the reformat necessary because of malware the last time/s?

    Let me know if you would like to try the reg file or reformat and I'll help where I can.

And Btw, im on my pc atm, found a way to open my browser other than the desktop and start menu. Looks like ill wipe i guess. Maca1 helped on the last one if that helps, but seemed to wipe all that i had at the time.

    If this is a common occurrence, consider the following:

    1. Avoiding the sites/software suspected.

    2. Don't use Internet Explorer (if you do) as that's essentially an open door onto your machine.

    3. Make an image of your hard drive, once your OS is fully-installed and patched, with some essential and known-safe programs already installed. That was, if this does happen again, you can simply re-create a fresh, uncorrupted drive image. This is best done with a separate drive that is not attached to the system when not making or restoring a trashed drive.

    After you reformat I recommend you read rav009's guide about free security programs here. One thing I don't see in your HjT log is a firewall. Having a firewall other than the Windows firewall is extremely important. I recommend that be one of the first things you install after the format.

    I apologize I couldn't assist you further. But, as I've said I thinks it's the best choice.

    Good luck! :)

    Edit: I agree 100% with Dunker's 2nd suggestion!
