In that case, your system may have been hijacked.
Please download FixWareout from one of these sites:
http://downloads.subratam.org/Fixwareout.exe
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/lonny/Fixwareout.exe
Save it to your desktop and run it. Click Next, then Install, make sure "Run fixit" is checked and click Finish.
The fix will begin; follow the prompts. You will be asked to reboot your computer; please do so. Your system may take longer than usual to load; this is normal.
Post the C:\fixwareout\report.txt and a fresh HJT log.
Regards Howard

New hjt log
Hi howard,
Seems a little better the Task manager is not freezing up at the moment when I check the running processes.
Internet connection didn't work but I checked DNS and it was empty, so put in an alternate DNS 202.96.209.133
Back on the web, seems Ok, thanks for your help. Will attach log and check your next reply to see what you think.
Lot of virus problems here in CH. Also got this persistent China telecom page that jumps in front of my preferred homepage before it is loaded. Real pain and down right rude, but that is another story. (sh.vnet is the culprit real pain)
Thanks in advance for all of your time and help. Gav

Hi,
Your HijackThis log seems rather clean. However, HijackThis is by no means a cure-all and detect-all.
May I suggest you visit this thread and follow the steps to cleaning your computer.
Do follow all the instructions exactly.
Thereafter, please post fresh HJT, AVG Antispyware and Combofix logs as attachments into this thread. Do not copy and paste if not it will be ignored and/or removed by the moderators.
The logs will enable us to understand more about the problems on your system.
Regards,
Your friendly Momok =)

Your HJT log looks clean.
Turn off system restore.(XP/ME only) See how HERE.
Now, turn system restore back on. This will have deleted all your old restore points and any nasties that are in them. It will also have created a new, clean restore point.
If you have any further virus/spyware problems, please post in this thread.
