Hi there, Welcome

In order for us to better help you with your problem im going to have to ask you to finish reinstalling everything on your computer and then have you follow the instructions in the first thread in the Malware and HijackThis logs section to provide us with enough information to determine if you still have a virus or not. If you could please post that log (you'll see what i mean once you read the thread) in the Malware and HijackThis logs section of the forums and not here, then someone will help you as soon as possible.

Thank you.
