...Actually it's behaving normally again now, it's like it has short bursts. Is there a reason Antivirus scans are so pathetic at picking these things up? They seem so damn common.
I'll go over some more details. So yeah I did something I shouldn't have once, I'm not proud of it, at least I had the excuse of being tired. Anyway, the 'file' is still on my computer, it wont let me delete or move it even in safe mode, and whenever I go near the 'file' it slows the computer down. The computer will also stick in running %50 CPU for a couple of hours whenever it goes over it. Then there's the occasional search redirect. Seems to run fine otherwise, I can play games and stuff without freezing.
And here's hopes that it isn't a worm (probably is) since I have three other computers constantly on this network and it's impossible to keep track of people and their USB drives. Whoop dee doo!
You're guide on using Combo fix says "You should not run ComboFix unless you are specifically asked to by a helper." so I decided not to use it. And since Mbam logs are really long, I'll wait until someone is actually watching this thread before posting it.
A quick response would be nice too, since you know, nobody responded AT ALL the last time I needed help. I will wait a max of 2 days before trying someplace else.

Yes malware now can shut everything down,such joy !! So let's do this next.
Post your MBAM log please.
Reboot into Safe Mode with Networking
How to enter safe mode(XP/Vista)
Using the F8 Method
Restart your computer.
When the machine first starts again it will generally list some equipment that is installed in your machine, amount of memory, hard drives installed etc. At this point you should gently tap the F8 key repeatedly until you are presented with a Windows XP Advanced Options menu.

Then press enter on your keyboard to boot into Safe Mode.
>>>> Download this file and doubleclick on it to run it. Allow the information to be merged with the registry.
RKill....
Download and Run RKill
- Please download RKill by Grinler from one of the 4 links below and save it to your desktop.
- Before we begin, you should disable your anti-malware softwares you have installed so they do not interfere RKill running as some anti-malware softwares detect RKill as malicious. Please refer to this page if you are not sure how.
- Double-click on Rkill on your desktop to run it. (If you are using Windows Vista, please right-click on it and select Run As Administrator)
- A black screen will appear and then disappear. Please do not worry, that is normal. This means that the tool has been successfully executed.
- If nothing happens or if the tool does not run, please let me know in your next reply

Link 2
Link 3
Link 4
Do not reboot your computer after running rkill as the malware programs will start again. Or if rebooting is required run it again.
If you continue having problems running rkill.com, you can download iExplore.exe or eXplorer.exe, which are renamed copies of rkill.com, and try them instead.
Next run Superantisypware (SAS):
Download and scan with SUPERAntiSpyware Free for Home Users
- Double-click SUPERAntiSpyware.exe and use the default settings for installation.
- An icon will be created on your desktop. Double-click that icon to launch the program.
- If asked to update the program definitions, click "Yes". If not, update the definitions before scanning by selecting "Check for Updates". (If you encounter any problems while downloading the updates, manually download them from here. Double-click on the hyperlink for Download Installer and save SASDEFINITIONS.EXE to your desktop. Then double-click on SASDEFINITIONS.EXE to install the definitions.)
- In the Main Menu, click the Preferences... button.
- Click the Scanning Control tab.
- Under Scanner Options make sure the following are checked (leave all others unchecked):
- Close browsers before scanning.
- Scan for tracking cookies.
- Terminate memory threats before quarantining.
- Close browsers before scanning.
- Click the "Close" button to leave the control center screen.
- Back on the main screen, under "Scan for Harmful Software" click Scan your computer.
- On the left, make sure you check C:\Fixed Drive.
- On the right, under "Complete Scan", choose Perform Complete Scan.
- Click "Next" to start the scan. Please be patient while it scans your computer.
- After the scan is complete, a Scan Summary box will appear with potentially harmful items that were detected. Click "OK".
- Make sure everything has a checkmark next to it and click "Next".
- A notification will appear that "Quarantine and Removal is Complete". Click "OK" and then click the "Finish" button to return to the main menu.
- If asked if you want to reboot, click "Yes".
- To retrieve the removal information after reboot, launch SUPERAntispyware again.
- Click Preferences, then click the Statistics/Logs tab.
- Under Scanner Logs, double-click SUPERAntiSpyware Scan Log.
- If there are several logs, click the current dated log and press View log. A text file will open in your default text editor.
- Please copy and paste the Scan Log results in your next reply.
- Click Preferences, then click the Statistics/Logs tab.
- Click Close to exit the program.
If you have a problem downloading, installing or getting SAS to run, try downloading and using the SUPERAntiSpyware Portable Scanner instead. Save the randomly named file (i.e. SAS_1710895.COM) to a usb drive or CD and transfer to the infected computer. Then double-click on it to launch and scan. The file is randomly named to help keep malware from blocking the scanner.
Rerun MBAM (MalwareBytes) like this:
Open MBAM in normal mode and click Update tab, select Check for Updates,when done
click Scanner tab,select Quick scan and scan (normal mode).
After scan click Remove Selected, Post new scan log and Reboot into normal mode.

I don't really feel comfortable with this... What does it do anyway?
That fake anti virus site doesn't seem to have done anything yet. Also that divx tool was completely unrelated, as I discovered it was running because I had a certain file type of video in media player at the time. Don't know why, just a subbed episode of Transformers: Headmasters.
Another thing I forgot to mention is that I already have Super Anti Spyware on my computer, and it's been taking forever (about 30-50 minutes) whenever I try to update.

Fixexe.reg is a Registry File that fixes .exe file association that has be broken, which is usually caused by malware. When .exe file associations are broken, any associated .exe applications cannot be executed, and you will get one of those warnings/errors saying "What do you want to use to Open this file" since Windows can not recognize the file.
Hope that helps.
It does appear that there is something on here as you malware tools are struggling,

They all seem to run fine, SAS just takes a while to update. I did exaggerate a little though. Tried again this morning to update and it seemed to be more like 15 minutes, though it kinda slowed the computer down. It could be because I defragged a while back. This computer is old, and I've been considering a reformat anyway.
I'll try to run Rkill tomorrow afternoon if I get the chance. I'm sorry for getting aggravated earlier with my opening post, since the reality of it is that I don't have much time on my hands either. My mom's getting knee surgery soon so I have a lot to do around the house while she's staying off her leg.
Get back to you when I can.

There's also a few check boxes you didn't mention like "scan for potentially unsafe applications" and "use custom proxy settings".
I'll stick to the ones you mentioned and post the Log a little bit later.
And sorry about the delay again. Looks like I'll only have the chance to check every other day for a good while. We went to the doctor yesterday and my mother had her surgery delayed.

Well when your done with AVG ask me again and I'll tell you tou use Avira.
Yes do Reboot. I always reboot even if not told to do so after removing malware or in and Un installing programs,it completes the PC cycle.
Win32/PSW.WOW.NDJ trojan is designed to steal user passwords to accounts on WoW servers. Chankge these passwords after checking here and deleting these if stiil there.
%System32%\KB896425.log
c:\nxldr.dat
•%System% is a variable that refers to the System folder. By default, this is C:\Windows\System32 (Windows XP).
How are the redirects now?
Rerun MBAM (MalwareBytes) like this:
Open MBAM in normal/regular mode and click Update tab, select Check for Updates,when done
click Scanner tab,select Quick scan and scan (normal mode).
After scan click Remove Selected, Post new scan log and Reboot into normal mode.

LoL, I don't even play WoW. Perfectly harmless to me... I guess.
As for the redirects, I have no clue how I would know since they happen anywhere from weeks to months in between.
That one 'file' is still there though. Perhaps I could just quarantine it with Mbam?
I'll restart and then run Mbam a little bit later tonight.

The divx thing was unrelated to the virus. I just wasn't paying enough attention to the format of the video playing.
The actual 'file' is something I downloaded a while back that slows down my computer whenever I go near it. It's just in a folder in drive D.
Also something must have been left behind because I got this after I restarted.

Edit:
No results from the Mbam scan or Super Anti Spyware. Just some cookies. What now?
