I have several unwanted icons in my Notification Area (system tray), they are all exe files. The names of the files are WebCompanion, wb (webbar), pmc, and pccum. The System Tray is the only location that I find these files. I do not know what these icons are, but they appear to be suspicious. Malwarebytes and Kaspersky show no system infections, yet I cannot remove them from my system. Below is my Hijackthis log. Any help would be appreciated.
