Alright I did what you said. The first time in safe mode, it did find CWS.Msconfig and Spybot found some tracking cookies. Subsequent checks in safe and normal mode were clean. Here is a selective HijackThis log (I removed anything I specifically knew was okay):

One thing that’s interesting is that i did try to completely uninstall quicktime but i still notice some stuff in the O16’s, though I don’t think those are my problem.
After all this, I try going to a site that doesn’t exist and i still end up at http://linklist.cc/index.php?aid=20038
I ran pv.exe and still see this:
ctl.dll 61c00000 61440 c:\windows\system32\ctl.dll
Which is supposedly something related to CWS but this file DOES NOT exist on my system as far as I can tell. But if it doesn’t exist, how can it be in the log?
