My browser has been hijacked

Hey everyone, I have been having some problems with my browser (IE) being hijacked and I have been getting pop-ups when my browser isn't even open. Also, am frequently finding pages in my Favorites that I did not add. I have run a ton of anti-spyware programs: Spybot Search & Destroy, Ad-Aware, Spy Sweeper, HijackThis, and a couple others. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is my HijackThis log:
