I can no longer connect to the internet using my Netgear Wirless Adapter. Kaspersky did not catch (or I did not see/understand that it did) the trojan. I used Windows Live OneCare and it told me I had the virus.
I run Windows XP and have already run the DDS tool.
I am an extreme novice -- so be gentle with me!

I hadn't been running two until I was fairly certain that Kaspersky hadn't caught something. I went into MSN Security to make sure that I had all the system updates I was supposed to have -- that's when the Windows One LiveCare caught the Trojan.
DDS logs below -- thanks!

I have completed step 1 and run SAS -- log below. No harmful items found. When I restart the computer before step 2, am I supposed to restart in safe mode again? Or normal mode?
OK -- that's what I did for Step 2 -- the Malwarebytes log is below. I cannot get GMER to run -- it downloads fine from all three sites, but I click on Scan and nothing happens -- it just sits there.

Please download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.
**Note: In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**
Please, never rename Combofix unless instructed.
Close any open browsers.
Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
Close any open browsers.
WARNING: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts
Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
If there is no internet connection after running Combofix, then restart your computer to restore back your connection.
Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
When finished, it will produce a report for you.
Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt" along with a new HijackThis log for further review.
**Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**
Make sure, you re-enable your security programs, when you're done with Combofix.
Nope -- same thing. No option to save to desktop and the error message telling me I can't rename the file even though I haven't touched it.
I did a search on Windows for "Combofix" and found it on my C drive in the Prefetch folder. I tried double clicking on it, but for all .pf extension files, it tells me it is an unknown application and I can't open anything that is .pf.
