hijackthis log for my PC

Unread postby ltownsend » August 19th, 2009, 7:29 am

AVG free edition has detected a virus in C://WINDOWS/system32 on my PC. It says a Win32/Patched virus was found in the file ws2_32.dll but won't remove it as it is a system critical file.
I have run trend micro and then MalwareBytes in safe mode and normal mode but neither have found anything.
Symptoms are disconnection or redirection of internet browser, toolbar changing format and the non-detection by the above anti-viral scanners.
The log from hijackthis is copied below:
