I just got back from doing a boot scan - it detected datacle.dll in the quarantined folder of ComboFix - I moved the infected file to the avast chest successfully.
I’ll post the logs from ComboFix and HijackThis in my next couple of posts.

OK, this is the ComboFix log. Seems a lot of remnants from old programs I once used is still here, lol. Like my old virus scanner prior to using Avast. :o

BYW do you have Mcafee still installed?
No, I recently uninstalled it and put Avast on instead. Thats why I was kind of weirded out when I saw it in the logs.
I’ll try your next step. I’ll be back soon.

A part of avast seems to be missing, possibly because of the remnants of mcafee. To resolve this I suggest you go to this link and download the mcafee removal tool
http://service.mcafee.com/FAQSearch.aspx?lc=4105&sg=TS&pt=1
Also I suggest you down load both the newest version of avast (the key you have can be re-used) and the avast uninstall utility from
http://avast.com/eng/programs.html
Save them to your destop and physically disconnect from the internet.
Uninstall avast via add/remove
boot
run the avast uninstall utility
boot
run the mcafee tool
boot
install avast
boot
Just completed all of that, and it appears that my computer’s clear of all viruses and a lot less laggy from cleaning up stuff.
I really appreciate all the help all you guys have given me - for a bit I actually thought my compie was going to require a reinstall just to get rid of the thing.
Thank you so much!
And good luck to you other guys who have the same problem - I hope you guys can remove the virus as well.
You’re welcome.
