Major Virus Problem. HTL Included

[color= "#003300"]My computer contracted a virus of some sort between 9:00 and 10:00 AM this morning (December 30th). In addition to the HijackThis log, my Spyware Doctor software (which I have since removed) said that I should remove these files as well:[/COLOR]

C:\WINDOWS\appwm32.exe
C:\WINDOWS\system32.crvl32.exe
C:\WINDOWS\trz5.tmp
C:\WINDOWS\DOCUME~1\Owner\Locals~1\Temp\2B2.tmp.exe
C:\WINDOWS\DOCUME~1\Owner\Locals~1\Temp\2B3.tmp.exe

[color= "#003300"]Since none of these files wish to be removed quietly, it appears that I might need to do something in DOS mode, that I will definitely need instructions on. I've done it before with the help of you guys, and I'm confident you can guide me through it again. Since the last time I was here (well over a year ago) I have acquired a new computer equipped with Windows XP. Anyhow, no matter how many times I reset my homepage, it still reverts to that about:blank page with all the viagra ads. I also keep getting pop-ups that match whatever I type into a Google search. (sigh) the usual ****. I should also mention that I'm using a high-speed connection (Verizon DSL). Here's the log...Can any of you tell me what needs to be gotten rid of? Thanks in advance.[/COLOR]

[FONT= "Century Gothic"][SIZE= "4"]PROBLEM SOLVED![/SIZE][/FONT]

Believe it or not, I was able to purge the virus from my system by following the instructions I found on another bulletin board that someone posted last July. Check out this link:

http://forums.spywareinfo.com/index.php?showtopic=51840

I now have CWShredder, ewido and Aboutbuster installed, and hope that I never have to use them again. I've upped the privacy level in the Tools drop-down menu, and have updated my Spybot software. If anyone has any other suggestions however, I'm all ears.​
