Hi George

Please download ComboFix to your desktop from here:

http://download.bleepingcomputer.com/sUBs/ComboFix.exe

Close all other programs, including any antivirus programs, then double click on the ComboFix icon to run the program.  Please allow the program to run completely (it may take some time), and allow it to reboot your computer.  After restarting, the program will finish up by creating a log report, which I will need you to copy into a follow-up here, along with a fresh HJT log.
