Bad image popups

Hi there,
I'm a newbie and I recently started getting these popups.

Lsass.exe - bad image. The application or DLL globalroot\systemroot\system32\SKYNETpumpeydo.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.

I read through the forum and I am having the same problem as a ton of other people.

I tried to follow the 8-step-removal process, but I can't even go through the 1st one which is to run my antivirus scanner. I have McAfee but when I double click, it doesn't open. My safe mode doesn't even work - it says Windows encountered a problem.

Other programs that I can't open: Mozilla, MBAM, among others.

What should I do?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
 
Here are my scans

Never mind - I got the scans to work.

Here are my MBAM, SuperAntiSpyware and Hijackthis logs.
In MBAM, it found 2 trojans, but SAS found 258 adware tracking cookies. I don't know how to make sense of the Hijackthis log :(

I will be most thankful if someone can help me out!
 
Hi there!
I'm not able to read your logs (in training), but I have noticed that your Malware log found 2 infections and it shows 'no action taken' at the end.
Maybe you should rerun that and remove the infections while you wait ;)
 
Hi there!
Yeah, with the MBAM, I removed the selected items. I actually ran MBAM twice and it removed some trojans. The last time I ran it (about 30mins ago) it didn't find any malware at all.

I also ran SAS another 2 times and it didn't find anything either.

Also, the pop-ups have stopped altogether. So am I in the clear?

I just want to thank you for looking at my logs - you guys are awesome:)
