IE 7 Redirect problem

[nhaman]

I have a windows XP Pro system. The antivirus 2009 was on the machine, i manually removed that using some instructions. I manaully cleaned up the registry and also booted from CD and deleted the winsrc.dll file and deleted all folders associated with the virus. That seems to be fine now, no more pop up. I used Ad-Ware to remove the spyware that was shown with that program and also did a couple cleans with HJT. I have eTrust Antivirus running (though i know it isn't the best). I am taking a shot that maybe someone can help as it is my inlaws computer and i only have it for another full day (Monday the 6th). The redirect isn't the only issue, the other issue is that if i try to do Windows update or download something like Spybot, it will just throw a window stating the page cannot be found. In order to get the programs on there that i have, i have to use a flash drive and get full installs moved that way and install them on the XP machine. Spybot uses the site for install, so that one will not install but adware did. It removed 56 problems though none were considered critical. I also ran the Fixwareout.exe program. I am not sure of any other information i can provide at this point. Here is the log file, not real big compared to some i see, i had just installed this machine a few months ago so there isn't much on it, but i don't want to do that again since they live a long ways away and have trouble getting hooked back up to internet and such. thanks for any help.
