Hi zack,

I see from your HJT log that you're using the 64 bit version of Vista.

Unfortunately the tools we use to analyse and remove infection do not work properly on that Operating System, and their results can not be relied upon. Because of this it is almost impossible for us to correctly diagnose any problems, and the fixes we might offer could potentially do as much damage to your computer as any infection you might have.

Because of this, we do not at this time offer support for 64 bit operating systems.

Sorry we can't be of help to you.

Gary R
