Pop-ups, Home Page Changes and Frustration!

Hey Folks. I began having problems with pop-ups - mostly pornographic ones, a few search engine sites here and there as well. Plus my computer seems to be running really slow. I have Norton 2008 which hasn't really found anything. I ran AVG which found a few things and said it repaired them, but the problem with pop-ups and slow performance continues.

I also have my home page change on me after restarting.

I have worked my way through the steps with AVG in Safe Mode but - nothing. I didn't see any programs in Add/Remove to account for this. I have completed Windows update as well. I have run HiJackThis and the report is below.

All this started yesterday. Today, 4 new problems started,
1. My font on web pges changes on its own.
2. I have a yellow exclamation triangle warning from the toolbar that flashes and warns me that I need to download new spyware software.
3. Security Toolbar 7.1 has installed itself in place of my Google toolbar and I can't get rid of it.
4. New icons for "Online Security Guard" and "Live Safety Center" have popped-up on my desktop.

Please help. I have alot of my work that I must do on this laptop and my computer is extreeeemely slow now and its affecting my job.

Thanks.
