Hi, I recently got a virus that blocks me from MOST antivirus and help sites. It also slows down my computer greatly. Also I am posting from a clean computer, because the infected one won't let me submit the post...
The only other detail I can give is that it came with other viruses, like the google redirect virus and fake antivirus background change.
This is my HijackThis log, the only reason I was able to DL this was from sending it from my other computer, so please note that I will require alternative download sites that aren't blocked or require extra time to send the programs from my clean computer.

Sorry if I'm a bit slow, since I have to DL RSIT from a clean computer and send it. Also I have to send the log back at the end, since my infected computer wont let me post on these forums...
Looks as though there's been quite a lot of malware gain access through the Windows Firewall from that folder. Please don't do anything with it just yet if it's still present.
Can you get to this page with the affected computer? If so, do the following on that computer.
If it launches a file download dialog for download_file.exe from noahdfear.net, click Run.
download_file.vbs file should appear on the desktop, and shortly there-after a renamed copy of ComboFix.
Please note that the vbs file is recognized by some security programs as a Trojan-Downloader.JS and may try to block it. I assure you, the file is safe.
If successful, double click the renamed ComboFix and follow the prompts.
If you cannot do that, do this.
Download ComboFix by sUBs from here, then transfer it to the affected computer's desktop.
Close all open programs and windows
Double click combofix.exe and follow the prompts.
It may reboot your computer and resume running when you logon. Wait for it to complete. When finished, it will open a log for you. Post that log and a new HijackThis log in your next reply.
Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while its running. That may cause it to stall
Glider shouldn't be dangerous, I don't use it anymore, but its a program for a game.
I couldn't download from your first link from my infected computer, but I sent ComboFix over and started it. It said Rootkit detected and needs to restart my computer, I've ran ComboFix 2 days ago and it still says rootkit and just restarts my computer. Should I turn off AVG? If so how?
Also when It reboots my computer, It doesn't resume running.
Delete the copy of ComboFix now on that computer. Rename ComboFix to something like FomboCix.exe or Combo-Fix.exe, then transfer it to the computer and try again. If it restarts again without running, just rename it and run again. Give it a couple 3 attempts if necessary
I'm not concerned about the Glider game, but about the many random named files with access through the firewall living in it's path. The naming convention is typical of malware.

For now, lets just make sure the path is not the same should something in the registry tell one of those nasties to run. Please rename the ah folder on your desktop to something else, such as oldah.
Ok, I did as you said and renamed ComboFix and resent it, but it still said the same thing and restarted my computer. Also about Glider, the folder ah isnt on my desktop anymore. Also I did a search "glider" and nothing came up. I think I deleted glider awhile back and I don't know whats going on right now.
Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM) from here or here and save the file to the desktop (download and transfer over if necessary).
Double click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
When the updating is complete, physically disconnect the computer from the internet.
Once the program has loaded, select 'Perform Quick Scan', then click Scan.
The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart. (See Note below)
The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts. Click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately.
As soon as MBAM is completely done, close it and run ComboFix. Do not reconnect the internet connection until after ComboFix has restarted the machine and produced a log.
