When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

So I keep getting this thing that's trying to download something on my computer. There are multiple instances of mshta.exe that show up on task manager, and after having a look with Process Explorer, the same url that's trying to connect to my computer is in the command line of these mshta.exe's. Also, when using Mozilla Firefox, it can't connect to sites like this and won't even open. I also get random tabs opening in Firefox.
Any help?

Note: I don't regularly use IE6, I used it this time because Mozilla wasn't working.

Also, the url is hxxp://www.funnypinguinshow.com/sdad.php?kxasdasddkhjk= and after updated definitions and scans with SAS, MBAM, and NOD32, it still couldn't find the problem.
