I use malwarebytes as a malware remover. Since the virus problem, the scan starts working and then shuts down the program about 5-20 seconds into the scan. Then it can not run until reinstalled. The same is for ad-aware and spybot, both which i installed after I was aware of the problem.
I see a "b.exe" and I didn't recognize it so i googled it and it seems to be malware so I ended the process and tried scanning again but it had the same results.

I also don't know what "hijack this" is and i do not know what "safe mode" does.
I am on a Windows XP.

ALSO I was browsing the forums and saw someone recommend a program called "RootRepeal - Rootkit Detector" so i tried that and it scanned or did whatever for 20 seconds before shutting down.

So far the internet is working fine.
What do I do?

• Please do not install any software or use any removal/scanning tool except for those you're requested to run by the Helper that will assist you.
  
• Using these other tools often makes the cleanup task more difficult and time consuming.
  
• If you have already submitted for assistance at one of the other support sites on the Internet then you should not post a new log here, you should stay working with the Helper from that site until the issue is resolved.
  
• Do not assume you're clean because you don't see something in the logs. Please wait until the person assisting you provides feedback.
  
• There are often many others that require asistance as well, so please be patient. If no one has responded within 48 hours then please go ahead and post a request for review

• NOTE: If for some reason you're unable to run some or any of the tools in the first link, then skip that step and move on to the next one.
