Hi, I recently have had problems with my computer which I will describe as follows.
As of yesterday, immediately after downloading and installing a "windows update" My computer was infected with a virus with the running process of ave.exe , it kept replicating itself and causing my computer to generate fake system scans and I was inundated with pop-ups trying to get me to purchase a bogus "xp antimalware" program, I seem to have gotten rid of that, but now I am having problems with windows live messenger not working even after a fresh installation. I also cannot click on any links on Google without being directed to a malicious site, the only way I can navigate is by copying and pasting links into the browser manually. I have run the Microsoft Security utility, malwarebytes, and done a system restore to a checkpoint of one week prior to when the problem first occurred, with slight or no improvement.
my hijack this logs are as follows:

Hi mystiegirl,
You didn't get that infection from any Windows Update; you got it from an e-mail, or more likely from using Limewire.

It is posted here: http://malwareremoval.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=33112
As a condition of receiving our help, I have included the P2P program Limewire in the removal instructions below, so we are not wasting our time.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Remove Registry items with HighjackThis. Start HijackThis.
Click Do System Scan Only. When the Scan is complete, Check the following entries:

Due to a lack of response, this topic is now closed.

If you still require help, please open a new thread in the Infected? Virus, malware, adware, ransomware, oh my! forum, include a fresh FRST log, and wait for a new helper.
