First of all download these two programmes.

Adaware and Spybot search and destroy you can find them both at www.majorgeeks.com

Install them and then make sure that they are fully updated.

Run adaware first and delete whatever it finds.

Then run Spybot and immunize your system then scan and let it fix whatever it finds.

once you have done this boot your computer into safe mode(by tapping the F8 key just before the windows loading screen appears) a list of options will appear select safe mode.

Now with no other programmes running run Hijackthis but do not let it fix anything then save the log and post it here for us to have a look at.
