I have been battling this virus for 2 days now. I got it from a website called RLSLOG.net (Rapidshare link-sharing blog). What basically happens is that 2 files with names like m.28F2E.tmp.exe are constantly created in my C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Temp folder. Avira AntiVir detects them as HIDDENEXT/Crypted [heuristic] and stops them for creating havoc, and I tell Avira to delete them, but they just come back again and again, and yesterday my finger slipped and pressed "ignore." This enabled the things to install Desktop Security 2010 - some incredibly annoying spyware/fraudware/whatever you call that kind of thing, but my anti-spyware software quickly got rid of the stuff and I was back at square 1 with the constantly re-creating .exe's.
I've noticed that there are some suspicious processed in my process tree like "OperatingSystem.exe *32" (weird that an OS process wouldn't be 64bit in a 64bit OS) with the description "peuZnkc65gnM9bKZ". There's also "systemMSORun.exe", "Thocrapitwcutlin.exe" and "QuickTimeResourcesQuickTimeResources.exe" - all with the same gibberish description. I haven't deleted these executables yet because of their location, which you can see in the log below.
Here's my HijackThis log:
