about:blank, Homesearch Removal Assistance - HiJack This Log
As per other posts, I have spent the last three and a half hours attempting to use various solution found in the forums to correct the issue. I have been totally unsuccessful
(I am obviously missing something here) at removal of the HomeSearch, ShoppingWizard and about:Blank hijackers.
Appreciate any assistance, as this is the CFO PC I am attempting to clean and he is obviously a busy man. Thanks.Here is my log file:

Hello,
You needn't have spent so much time trying different methods. Don't be afraid to post and ask and I or somebody else will get to you ASAP. As you can see the forum receives a lot of requests and I'm a very busy person.
What I want you to do, is first of all update your version of Hijack This from http://hjt.isecureit.co.uk and then post a fresh log. We will remove the hijacker after that.

Here is the updated logfile from the new version:

Hello,
Could you follow these instructions:
1. Download AboutBuster http://www.downloads.subratam.org/AboutBuster.zip
Unzip it to your desktop but don't run it yet.
2. Download Ad-aware from here. Open the Ad-aware program and near the bottom click the Check For Updates link. This will open the update manager. Follow the prompts to update your Ad-aware Reference File. Close Ad-aware for now, we will use it later.
3. You may want to print out these instructions for further reference when completing the following steps.
4. Make sure your PC is configured to show hidden files
Open Windows Explorer & Go to Tools > Folder Options. Click on the View tab and make sure that "Show hidden files and folders" is checked. Also uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" and untick "hide extensions for known file types" . Now click "Apply to all folders"
Click "Apply" then "OK"
5. Next, go to Start->Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then hit Ok
Scroll down and find the service called "Network Security Service". When you find it, double-click on it. In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then click on properties and under the General Tab, change the Startup Type to Disabled. Now hit Apply and then Ok and close any open windows.
6. Then reboot your PC into Safe Mode. If you don't know how to do this, see here for further instructions.
7. Restart Hijack This and put a checkmark next to the following entries:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [atlzw32.exe] C:\WINNT\system32\atlzw32.exe
Then delete the following files and folders:
C:\WINNT\system32\javapm32.exe
C:\WINNT\system32\atlzw32.exe
8. Double click AboutBuster.exe that you downloaded earlier. Click OK, click Start, then click OK. This will scan your computer for the bad files and delete them. Save the report (copy and paste into notepad or wordpad and save as a .txt file) and post a copy back here when you are done with all the steps.
9. Scan with Adaware and let it remove any bad files found.
10. Clean out temporary and TIF files. Go to Start > Run and type in the box: cleanmgr. Let it scan your system for files to remove. Make sure that Temporary Files, Temporary Internet Files and Recycle Bin
11. Reboot to normal mode
12. Finally, pay a visit to Housecall. Scan for and remove any infected files found on your system.
Post a fresh HijackThis log and the AboutBuster report back here please.

I printed the message and checked off each step as I completed it. I found a couple of problems and will document them here as well as the logs that I ended up with.
#1 There was no service called "Network Security Service" that I could find.
#2 After running HijackThis, I could not find ALL of the keys that you asked me to check off. I found only 4 of 9.
Here are the logs:
