Dubliner asking for help with seven problems

I very much appreciate any assistance that can be provided. Desmond  Problems include:
 
1. Spyware Blaster ‘program has been damaged’ situation (even though it’s been loaded multiple times.
2. Spyware Guard Browser Protection Alert:  Attempt to change IE settings.  IE search bar has been changed to res://c:\windows\TEMP\se.dll/sp.html.  When I hit ‘restore old value’ it restores it but then it happens again right away.  Causes me to not be able to exit windows properly.
3. Spyware Guard does not seem to be able to update. It just hangs in the update state.
4. IE starts on its own and goes to www.loadingwebsite.com/normal/yyyy23.html
5. Naimas32:  “Program has performed an illegal operation and will shut down”
6. Have numerous items in task manager, including adawwpg, aseky, ydbiyqi, cryrts, and cvtr32, none of which I can determine what they are.
7. When I run HiJack This, in normal (ie., not safe mode), the program hangs after doing a scan and showing the log.  In the task manager it says ‘not responding’.  The only way to end it is via the task manager.  I can run HiJack this in Safe mode.
 
I had more problems earlier in the week and I could not go on line.  I was able to get rid of the other problems by loading some anti spyware software off of CD.
 
My system is Win 98 with all updates (as of today, after these problems started).  I have installed Ad-Aware 1.05 with definitions as of 16 Feb
CW Shreder 1.59.1
Spybot Search and destroy 1.3.
Spyware Guard 2.2
Hijack This 1.99.1
 
A HiJack This scan is below (see the note), and HiJack This start up list is further below.
 
Thank you for your help.  Desmond Pieri
 
Note:  The log below was created in save mode due to problem number seven above.

From your HJT log, it looks like you have a combination of spyware/malware infections.
 
I suggest that you go to www.webroot.com and run a remote scan to see what spyware that Spy Sweeper 3.5 detects on your system.  
 
If it detects any, I then suggest that you download Spy Sweeper 3.5 at  
http://www.webroot.com/products/spysweeper/?WRSID=c30188ac053f04f23b18b9 2b01f33e04
 
and purchase a 1 year license for $19.95.  Clean your system of infections and activate all the applicable Shields in Spy Sweeper.  
 
I highly recommend that you download the trial version of TH V4.2, install it, and scan your system.  If you like what you see with TH, a one time license fee will get you the fully licensed version.

Suspicious
 
Suspicious entries have been found in your log. They might be spyware/malware. We advise that you follow all of the directions on this page, and then re-run HijackThis. If you are still seeing this "Suspicious" section, you should go to the Spyware Help section of our site and post your log in a new topic so that our experts can analyze it personally.
 
 
 
Suggestions
 
The following are not necessarily spyware/malware, but we suggest you place a check mark next to the following entries, as these programs may be taking up system resources.
 
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [LoadQM] loadqm.exe
(Description: This is the Microsoft MSN Queue Manager. There is disagreement over whether it is spying on you or not. Nevertheless, we suggest you check this entry and remove it. Removing this entry will free up some system resources. more information)
 
O4 - Startup: Microsoft Office.lnk = C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\OSA.EXE
(Description: Microsoft Office startup assistant. Not necessary. Removing this entry will free up a significant amount of system resources.)

(Description: Browser add-on from RealNetworks. Unnecessary.)
 
 
 

 
1) Press the "Fix checked" button. Then close HijackThis.

 
2) Then reboot your computer.
 
3) Remove all files from your C:\WINDOWS\TEMP folder and your C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\(your username)\LOCAL SETTINGS\Temp\ folder. (Do NOT delete the folders themselves). PLEASE NOTE: The local settings folder is a hidden folder.
 
4) Uninstall Virtual Bouncer.
 
5) Delete the folder C:\Program Files\VBouncer\
 
6) Delete the C:\Program Files\AutoUpdate\ folder.
 
7) Empty the recycle bin.
 
8) Run Windows Update and install all critical updates.
 
9) Make sure your anti-virus program is up to date with the latest patches. If you do not have an anti-virus program, download and install AVG Personal Edition Anti-Virus, which is free.
 
10) Reboot one last time.  
 
11) Some suspicious entries have been found in your log. The next step is to run HijackThis again and create another log file. Click here to create a new topic in our Spyware Help forum and paste your log within, along with a note that the Detective prompted you to do so. One of our experts will analyze your log and post a response if there is anything else you need to fix.

thank you for the quick response. I am traveling this weekend and will not be at a place where I can hitch up my PC.  As soon as I can get connected, I'll do the things you suggest and I'll do another reply to confirm success. Again, thank you very much. Des
