I ran Malwarebytes the other day and came up with several infected items. This is the log from that on 10/12/09:
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.41

Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3

Malwarebytes was able to remove Backdoor.Bot and Trojan.FakeAlert but not Hijack.ControlPanelStyle. I restarted my computer several times since it said that it would be removed on reboot, but it still has not been removed.
I can't edit or delete it when I try in the registry editor. I can't remove Live Search add-on (which just appeared this week - it was Google before) and I can't install the Google Search Tool Bar.
Is this something I need to be concerned with? If so, please help me get rid of it. Thank you!
Here are my logs from today 10/14/09 from malwarebytes and hijack this:
