Sorry about the confusion with signing in names, am helping a friend( or rather you are lol) as well as my sister!

Don't worry, I know your the same person because of your IPs being the same.

Thats a clean log, how are things running?

Not very well i'm afraid. I dont know where to start really or whats relevant or not, so i'll tell you everything in the hope that you may have a solution. Sorry if its too much rambling information, if you dont have time i'll understand!
Maries PC has been running slowly for months, but in the last few weeks it has slowed down to a crawl. Though they could get on the net, they couldn't access any of their secure sites such as e-mail or banking. They had Norton anti virus installed which wasn't showing any problems after scanning so they uninstalled it and installed the full version of Bit Defender. On scanning this came up with the trojans (mentioned in her initial post) but couldn't clean them. I disabled System Restore and installed AVG, Adaware and Spybot. AVG came up with same Trojans but failed to clean them. There was also a pop up saying something like 'virtual memory is low'. I emptied the Temporary Internet Files folders of all 4 users(these had never been emptied before) in the hope of speeding things up a little. I then posted a log to you and carried out your instructions but the PC problems remained the same.
I then downloaded a program called 'GiPo Move On Boot', pasted the paths of the Trojans into it and rebooted but they still remained. Then downloaded 'Trojan Hunter' which on running came up with all the problems and was able to clean them. I ran it again (just to be sure!) and it came up clean, so i rebooted but still the same problems remained. Still took 10 minutes to load windows and an age to do anything else. Then got a warning message saying something like 'registry corruption detected run a full check disc'. I did this and it came up with a number of registry errors which it reported as fixed but still no change in running of PC. Wanted to search Windows for any leftovers of Trojan Files but couldn't as 'Search Companion' had disappeared.(No text, just a blue box and a yellow dog!). Tried to download a patch for this on Microsoft site but wasn't able to complete the verification process without timing out. Tried to search manually, and in each of the 4 users Temp Folders were 3 instances each of Satmat, Farmmext, Multimp and Polmx. This included one instance each of a .cab file???. I deleted all of these then uninstalled AVG, Spybot, Move On Boot and Trojan Hunter(in case of any possible conflict with Bit Defender, as this program was now starting to get a bit unstable) then rebooted, but again still no change. Ran Bit Defender again but it 'hung' on 32% (though reported one virus found but hadn't got to the stage of naming it). Rebooted and everything went nuts! Programs opened at random, task manager popped up a zillion times, other programs wouldn't open and start menu disappeared. PC was also giving off warning beeps every now and then. Wondered if problems were due to overheating, as well as Trojans, so went into BIOS/CMOS to check CPU temps but couldn't find 'PC Health Status ' heading or anything else to indicate the temperature. Don't know what i'm doing wrong. I then went home, sat under the table and rocked, making small whimpering noises with my head in my hands. Over to you! lol

I don't blame you LOL. Theres a dark cupboard under my stairs, your welcome to it.

I'm going to need a Hijack This log, I really am running out of suggestions, but this is a step in the right direction.

Sorry about the delay, have only just had a chance to get to Maries. Managed to run 'Bit Defender' without it hanging and it picked up 'Pollal1m.exe' but couldn't clean it. I found instructions on removing it manually, carried them out and then run another scan which this time came up clean. Also found instructions on how to get 'Search Companion' back( by re-registering the jscript and vbscript dlls). Her PC is now running a lot faster than it was, but still a lot slower than it should. New log below if you get the chance to have a look at it! Thanks.
P.S. Is it a bad idea to delete the entire contents of the "currentuser\Local Settings\Temp" folder?

No its a good idea to be honest. Clears disk space and they are unnecessary files.

Again, thats a clean log.

What I can recommend is having a read of the Cleaning Up and Speeding Up thread at the top of this forum. This may help you improve system performance.

Phew, thank goodness for that! lol
Thanks again for all your help.
