We may be getting somewhere then :)

Can you check, if pop-ups happen in IE as well.
Do pop-ups happen, only, when you actually use Firefox, or even with FF closed?
Do you pop-up blocker enabled?

Close Firefox. Go Start>All Programs>Mozilla Firefox, click on Mozilla Firefox (safe mode). Still pop-ups?
 
Got a popup in IE

Pop-ups only ocur when firefox is open

I have a popup blocker enabled, but I don't know if it's doing its job correctly.

Got a popup in safe mode.

Is a new tab still considered a popup? They are kind of infrequent but noticeable still.
 
Here's a fun new wrinkle, it says it cannot be saved because an unknown error occurred, and that I should try to save it in a different place. I can't save it to my desktop or anywhere.
 
Rename it to broni.com again BEFORE saving it to your desktop.
Something is still hiding there.
 
1. Please open Notepad
  • Click Start , then Run
  • Type notepad .exe in the Run Box.

2. Now copy/paste the entire content of the codebox below into the Notepad window:

Code:
File::

Folder::
c:\documents and settings\Michael\Local Settings\Application Data\iohecvqxg


Driver::

Registry::

RegLockDel::


3. Save the above as CFScript.txt

4. Then drag the CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe as depicted in the animation below. This will start ComboFix again.

5. After reboot, (in case it asks to reboot), please post the following reports/logs into your next reply:
  • Combofix.txt
  • A new HijackThis log.
 
There we go, ran it in safe mode again.

Those pop-ups are present in Firefox only, correct?
When removing Firefox, are you sure, you completed 100% of all steps listed here: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox?
It was important to remove all traces of FF. Simple Add\Remove won't do.

Update Malwarebytes and run fresh scan.

Please download GooredFix from one of the locations below and save it to your Desktop
Download Mirror #1
Download Mirror #2
  • Ensure all Firefox windows are closed.
  • To run the tool, double-click it (XP), or right-click and select Run As Administrator (Vista).
  • When prompted to run the scan, click Yes.
  • GooredFix will check for infections, and then a log will appear. Please post the contents of that log in your next reply (it can also be found on your desktop, called GooredFix.txt).

Download FoxScan from HERE, or HERE
Double click on FoxScan.exe to start the scan.
DOS-like window will pop-up.
Press 2 for English. Press Enter.
Be patient. It'll take few minutes.
When the tool is done, it'll display:

Search completed.
Press any key to coninue...


Press any key.
Notepad window titled Rapport-FS.txt will open.
Save the file to known location, and attach it to your next reply.
 
How is redirection?
I don't understand something.
Since you just performed clean FF install, how come do you have all those add-ons already?
 
I used Mozbackup. Was I not supposed to backup addons? I have had all of them for a long time before I started having problems and I haven't gotten any since.
Redirection seems to be better, popups occasionally though.
 
...and you sure, initially, you removed all FF traces following my link?

Update Malwarebytes and run new scan.
This time, run "full scan" instead of "quick scan".
Post the log.

Wtf this is getting out of hand. My computer now sometimes starts with internet connection, and sometimes does not. Other computers are still connected, and I have tried everything I know of to restart internet on the infected computer. I know the wire still works. Also, every time I restart the themes are reset. Do you think I have a little bit more than malware on my computer?

I'll post the HJT and anti spyware results as soon as my computer starts with working internet.

I still want to see fresh Malwarebytes log.
Judging from Super log, you got reinfected.
Adware.Vundo/Variant
C:\PROGRAM FILES\DIABLO II\D2NET.DLL
Is it legit game, or some late torrent download?
 
Ugh sorry for being such a pain =.= I really appreciate the help and generosity.

The game is the real game, I've had it since pretty much when the game came out.

=======================================================================

Please download ComboFix from Here or Here to your Desktop.

**Note: In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**
  1. Please, never rename Combofix unless instructed.
  2. Close any open browsers.
  3. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
    • Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results".
    • Click on this link to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
    NOTE1. If Combofix asks you to install Recovery Console, please allow it.
    NOTE 2. If Combofix asks you to update the program, always do so.
    • Close any open browsers.
    • WARNING: Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts
    • Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
    • If there is no internet connection after running Combofix, then restart your computer to restore back your connection.
  4. Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
  5. When finished, it will produce a report for you.
  6. Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt"
**Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**

Make sure, you re-enable your security programs, when you're done with Combofix.

DO NOT make any other changes to your computer (like installing programs, using other cleaning tools, etc.), until it's officially declared clean!!!
 
I had to run combofix in safe mode to get it to work (it blue screened otherwise) I hope that's okay.
