Pop Up Purgatory

[Wildcards]

Hello,

I have been fighting a malicious parasite all weekend and am losing. I have removed and deleted several parasites but they seem to self-relpicate. The worst problem is IE auto launches to down load a pop up add.

Please review the Highjackthis Log below. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
