i ran malwarebytes which didn't pick up anything. i know something is there, tho because i still get popup tabs in firefox every now and then and also my comp is still going slow and its still making that loud noise as if a cd is running. anyway, here's the log:

otl won't scan at all. a window with a black screen comes up and thats it.
gmer won't scan the computer. it crashes an hour or more into it. if it doesn't do that then it crashes the computer and restarts it. even in safemode it won't run.
swear to God i'm pissed. i wish i could find the guy that created this pos virus/malware.
