Thanks for this forum. I have read many threads and tried to do as much as possible w/o posting, but alas I'm still here. Here's the low-down:
My neighbor brought me his laptop cuz I'm "good with computers!" Whatever. I cleaned hundreds of infections via AVG. From reading this and other forums I downloaded SuperAntiSpyWare which cleaned a hundred or more threats. From what I can discern there are two things outstanding:
1) at startup I get a message about ffmgphqk.dll could not be loaded. I see this file in the hijack log. I had to do many things just to get this PC to actually boot, as there were so many things wrong with this PC!
2) I cannot get to any website via IE or ping. I have seen some weird things while "playing" around. For instance, I did ipconfig /release and it dropped my ip address, yet my router showed a different ip still showing as connected from the laptop! Furthermore, a new ip address was assigned, even though I didn't do /renew.
Here is the hijack log...please offer your feedback and suggestions. I will NOT take credit for the fix, but instead point my neighbor to this forum next time!
