Self-installing short-cuts!

Viruses and worms
1

Hi Guys!

Need some help again. My PC is infected as shown by some horrible looking short-cuts installing themselves on my desktop. Typically after I have been working for a while (e.g. on Word etc.), when I minimise the window, some shortcuts to pornographic websites appear on the desktop.

I have run scans with avast but it does not resolve the problem. Do I need additional software?

Thanks a lot in advance.

do a quick scan and click the “remove selcted” button to quarantine anything found, restart and repeat

SAS http://filehippo.com/download_superantispyware/
do a fullscan, and repeat

Come back and post scan logs here
