I've tried to post a hijackthis report in the Malware forum but its being rejected because it says it has links in it and that I need 5 posts before I can include it.
Is there a way around this?

Yes you need to [COLOR="Red"]attach [/COLOR]them, using the little paper clip button => in a new thread (But not here though!), in the relevant thread, usually Virus & Malware removal forum

This is also stated in the guide
For your convenience here is that 8-Step removal Virus\Malware guide

argh kimsland, I have just returned from finding the link and to tell him to read step 8.
I'm going to link him up anyway since I already went this far http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic58138.html

lol

But I moved the thread from Introduce yourself as well
