    WinAntiVirus Pop-ups

    I ran a bad .exe file the other day and got infested by more spyware/adaware/viruses than I've ever seen. I'm using Windows XP SP2.

    I ran several scans by ad-aware and spybot, and they barely helped. I ran housecall's virus scan but that restarted my comp so I went ahead and got Kaspersky Anti Virus and ran that. It found 46 items which all got either quarantined, disinfected, or deleted.

    Things are a lot better now, but clearly not 100%. I was getting several pop-ups whenever I did a search on like google, so in Internet Explorer I went to Tools -> Manage Add-Ons... and disabled everything in that list. This stopped several pop-ups from coming up, but I'm still getting 2 pop-ups, 1 prompting me to buy a program called WinAntiVirus, and I forget the other.

    Other than this everything seems to be OK, the Hijackthis log scan didn't find anything considered "Nasty" but I'll still upload the log, and a screenshot of what's in my Manage Addons list(I've enabled some things I know are legit).

    Please help, I'd rather not reinstall my OS... again........

    OK Manage Attachments button isn't working. I'll put the links here:

    Added Hijackthis log attachment to this post.
