I suggest:
1. Disable System Restore and reenable it after step 3.
2. Clean your temporary files.
3. Schedule a boot time scanning with avast with archive scanning turned on.
4. Use
AVG Antispyware
;
SUPERantispyware
and/or
Spyware Terminator
to scan for spywares and trojans. If any infection is detected, better and safer is send the file to Quarantine than to simple delete than.
5. Test your machine with
anti-rootkit applications
. I suggest
AVG
or
Trend Micro RootkitBuster
.
6. Make a
HijackThis
log to post here or, better, submit the
RunScanner
log to to on-line analysis.
7. Immunize your system with
SpywareBlaster
or
Windows Advanced Care
.
8. Check if you have insecure applications with
Secunia Software Inspector
.
