Open a new thread just for your specific problem and post the log.
I suggest:

1. Clean your temporary files.
2. Schedule a boot time scanning with avast with archive scanning turned on. If avast does not detect it, you can try DrWeb CureIT! instead.
3. Use Comodo Cleaning Essentials (CCE), or MBAM, or SUPERantispyware to scan for spywares and trojans. If any infection is detected, it is better and safer to send the infected file(s) to quarantine (Chest), rather than simply deleting them.
4. Test your machine with anti-rootkit applications. I suggest avast! antirootkit or Trend Micro RootkitBuster.
5. Read these instructions and provide more info with the logs generated. But, please, do NOT post there, open a NEW thread for your specific problem and help us to help you.
6. Clean your Hosts file (replacing it) with HostsMan tool.
7. Disable System Restore and then reenable it again.
8. Immunize your system with SpywareBlaster.
9. Check if you have insecure applications with Secunia Software Inspector.

If the infection avoids booting the computer, take a look here http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=79107.0

"Please reread the topic above yours and create a new topic"

People who come here w/problems dont get even a polite reply.  As per ususal, they are basically told to shut up & get lost.  Your approach is entirely un-helpful.  This IS a thread on virus removal.  I asked a simple question, am given no help, and am told to go away and spend my time making up a new thread (for every new problem?)  How foolish, thanks for nothing.

If that's what your *evangelism* is all about you'd better start looking for a new religion b/c you sure aren't promoting this one.

1. People who come here w/problems dont get even a polite reply. 
2. As per ususal, they are basically told to shut up & get lost. 
3. Your approach is entirely un-helpful.

1. Sorry, but Dave just asked you (in a polite way) to start a new topic for your problem.
2. Nobody said so.
3. I disagree, as it is much easier to concentrate on your specific question in your own thread.

Well if you are going to quote, please don't do it out of context and leave out the important bit at the end.

What is impolite about 'Please' or 'create a new topic and we will try to help.'

It is basically this topic is, A) very old and B) isn't for individual problems (mentioned in the very first post of the topic in red), as it will get cluttered and confused.

That is why you were asked politely to please create your own topic and we will try and help, as it won't be given in this topic.
