BleepingComputer.com: Spyware Protect 2009 HELP!

Hey, thanks in advance for any help you can provide me. My computer recently started acting funny and I was recieving the message: The application or DLL C:\windows\system32\digeste.dll is not a valid windows image. Please check this againstyour installation diskette; when I booted up my computer and then sometimes when ever I opened certain programs. I didn't think much about it or that my computer was running slower. Then after a few weeks Spyware Protect 2009 began popping up. I updated my Norton (Norton 360) and ran a scan. It found and quartined (I guess) Bloodhound.sonar.1 and Hacktool.rootkit and prompted me to reboot. Things would run fine but I would still get the DLL message when I booted up and then Spyware Protect would come back. We would do the same thing all over again.Also my A drive light would come on about every 20 seconds and if you put a disk in there and formated it and left it in there, 20 seconds later it would put something it. My father-in law said it looked like it was created a boot disk. I disabled the A drive for now. I have done all the begginng steps and have my HijackThis log below. Thank you again and please feel free to contact me if you need more information. Sorry for being so wordy, trying to give you as much info as possible.

Welcome to the BleepingComputer Forums.

Since it has been a few days since you scanned your computer with HijackThis, we will need a new HijackThis log. Please download Trend Micro - HijackThis. Do a new scan with Trend Micro - HijackThis and post it in your next reply.] Thank you for your patience.

Please see Preparation Guide for use before posting about your potential Malware problem.

If you have already posted this log at another forum or if you decide to seek help at another forum, please let us know. There is a shortage of helpers and taking the time of two volunteer helpers means that someone else may not be helped.

Please post your HijackThis log as a reply to this thread and not as an attachment. I am always leery of opening attachments so I always request that HijackThis logs are to be posted as a reply to the thread. I do not think that you are attaching anything scary but others may do so.

While we are working on your HijackThis log, please:

• Reply to this thread; do not start another!
  
• Do not make any changes on your computer during the cleaning process or download/add programs on your computer unless instructed to do so.
  
• Do not run any other tool until instructed to do so!
  
• Let me know if any of the links do not work or if any of the tools do not work.
  
• Tell me about problems or symptoms that occur during the fix.
  
• Do not run any other programs or open any other windows while doing a fix.
  
• Ask any questions that you have regarding the fix(es), the infection(s), the performance of your computer, etc.

Thanks.
