Damned greeks and their gifts! (trojan)

I just installed AVG and it detected several trojans: Rameh E, Agent AS, Agent AL, among others. I used Ad-subtract SE and Spybot, disabled my system restore (Win ME) and re-scanned everything. I still get trojans popping up. What do I need to do? Here's my Hijack This log:

Make sure your harddrive is selected when you press "Select Drives and Folders to scan"

In the Advanced tab select:
Make sure you have everything under the "Logfile Detail Level" selected.
(This makes it easier for people from Lavasoft forums see what options you have selected)

In the Startup, Defaults, and Interface tab select nothing.


In the Tweak tab select:
You may not be able to select certain things in the tweak tab, but do not be alarmed.
Under scanning engine select:
"Unload recognized processes during scanning"
"Scan registry for all users instead of current users only"
Under Cleaning Engine select:
"Always try to unload modules before deletion"
"During removal unload Explorer and IE if necessary"
"Let Windows remove files in use at next boot"
"Delete Quarantined objects after restoring"
Under log files:
"Include Basic Ad-Aware settings in log file"
"Include additional Ad-Aware settings in log file"
"Include reference summary in log file"
"Include used command line parameters in log file"
All of the other links are just fine.

Press "Proceed" to save the settings


Press "Next" on the bottom right hand corner.
Ad-Aware SE will scan your computer for possible spyware threats or anything that you have on your computer that maybe spyware.

Thats clean

 

Thanks! You know, someday when I'm not poor anymore, I might have to donate to this site...

 

It would be much appreciated if you are able to do sop and your welcome.

 

Ok, problem is not solved! my AVG detected 3 more infected files, with 3 different trojan horses, today. I used ad-subtract again, and my pc was inundated with over 200 malware items, especially EZula and Bargain Buddy files. I ran Hijack This again, cleaned repaired what I could find, and now it looks clean again. Where is all this coming from? It seems like every time I log on, I get nailed again. Most of the sites I visit, I've been going to for a long time, and I've never had this problem before. Any new sites, I've stopped visiting for the moment. Any ideas? Here's my latest (hopefully clean) Hijack log:

Thats a clean log once again so did you take note of where the three trojans were located..

 

They were all in the Temporary Internet Files folder.

 

Then have a look at this http://dotcomsecurity.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=63

 

ok, so I cleaned out all the temporary files on the computer, ran ad-aware and hjt again. HJT still looked clean. Then I got hit AGAIN. I went through my registry, found a few keys that Ad-aware hadn't and deleted those. Got hit again. By this point, I'd removed about 600 items, using ad-aware because they were all re-entered by SOMETHING. Then I found a folder in My Documents named Recommended Hotfix #(sorry, forgot the number). Checked the created date, and it was only a couple days old, so I deleted it. I haven't found any entries in the registry for the program in that folder, either. I THINK that was it, but I'm not sure. So far, I'm still clean tho.

 

sounds good..

 

ok, that didn't work either. what am I missing???

 

A little update... I installed Spy Sweeper, and it found several adware .exe files and a transponder (???). I removed those, and kept my eyes on the adware that it found after that. I checked the registry manually for keys from several of them, following instructions I found on kephyr.com, but I couldn't find any, so I'm sure they're being completely removed. Now about every couple of hours AVG detects 2 infected files in my Temp folder, and SS catches an exe file, usually bxxs5. Is there something hidden on my pc still that's downloading these, or am I just being bombarded with trojans and adware? What can I do to keep these out?
