HijackThis log

[Gray-Fox]

I have a piece of malware on my PC that tries to get me to install a fake antispyware program by telling me I am infected. The trigger for it telling me I am infected is clicking on folders in My Computer. If I click yes it wants me to download the fake program TotalSecure2009.exe from some random IP address, if no it opens my browser and takes me to a page that does not exist anymore, which I will not link here unless requested. After trying Ad-aware, and TrendMicro's Housecall, I turned to hijack this to try and find the problem. TrendMicro's Housecall found nothing when I did the scane from their site. Ad-aware however found a virus the first time I ran it, however each time I ran it after that it did not pick anything up, and the malware persists. Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

Here is my HijackThis log:

If you can do those things, everything should go smoothly

Howdy Gray-Fox, lets get started cleaning you up !!

Please download SmitfraudFix (by S!Ri)

Double-click SmitfraudFix.exe.
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.

**If the tool fails to launch from the Desktop, please move SmitfraudFix.exe directly to the root of the system drive (usually C:), and launch from there.

Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

6. Leave the default options as it is and click on Start Scan.
