Well first thanks for helping get rid of my infection; I used the instruction found here: http://www.malwareby...showtopic=12709
And it appeared to work fine afterwards.

Here is the MBAM log of the cleanup:

Hello,

Done. I had try the links multiple times before the program would download, either error 404s or it would redirect back to their home pages.... odd and worrying. I think it deleted a couple more bad files. Also, yes I used a different computer to change my passwords.

Thanks,

Highly recommend you update to XP SP3 and then recommend you update Internet Explorer to v7 (don't install IE8 until you install IE7) then update all the critical updates.


Disable your bootlog with MSCONFIG and remove Combofix

STEP A
[indent]Uninstall ComboFix.exe

• Click START then RUN
  
• Now type Combofix /u (if you renamed Combofix.exe use that name instead) in the runbox and click OK. Note the space between the X and the /U, it needs to be there.
  
• [indent][/indent]
  
• When shown the disclaimer, Select "2"

Remove this folder C:\QooBox if the uninstall instructions don't work and delete Combofix.exe AND check your system time and reset if needed[/indent]




Great, all looks good now.

I'll close your post soon so that other don't post into it and leave you with this information and suggestions.

So how did I get infected in the first place?


[indent]At this time your system appears to be clean. Nothing else in the logs indicates that you are still infected.
Now that you appear to be clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:

Remove all but the most recent Restore Point on Windows XP

[indent]You should Create a New Restore Point to prevent possible reinfection from an old one.
Some of the malware you picked up could have been saved in System Restore.
Since this is a protected directory your tools cannot access to delete these files, they sometimes can reinfect your system if you accidentally use an old restore point.
Setting a new restore point AFTER cleaning your system will help prevent this and enable your computer to "roll-back" to a clean working state.

The easiest and safest way to do this is:

• Go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools and click "System Restore".
  
• If the shortcut is missing you can also click on START > RUN > and type in %SystemRoot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe and click OK
  
• Choose the radio button marked "Create a Restore Point" on the first screen then click "Next".
  
• Give the new Restore Point a name, then click "Create".
  
• The new point will be stamped with the current date and time. Keep a log of this so you can find it easily should you need to use System Restore.

• Then use the Disk Cleanup to remove all but the most recently created Restore Point.
  
• Go to Start > Run and type: Cleanmgr.exe
  
• Select the drive where Windows is installed and click "Ok". Disk Cleanup will scan your files for several minutes, then open.
  
• Click the "More Options" tab, then click the "Clean up" button under System Restore.
  
• Click Ok. You will be prompted with "Are you sure you want to delete all but the most recent restore point?"
  
• Click Yes, then click Ok.
  
• Click Yes again when prompted with "Are you sure you want to perform these actions?"
  
• Disk Cleanup will remove the files and close automatically.
  
• On the Disk Cleanup tab, if the System Restore: Obsolete Data Stores entry is available remove them also.
  
• These are files that were created before Windows was reformatted or reinstalled. They are obsolete and you can delete them.

The windows firewall is not sufficient to protect your system. It doesn't monitor outgoing traffic and this is a must.
