Here's the scoop: While running some checks, Spybot kept pinging back this little bug. I have:
1) Run Spybot, deleted issues
2) Ran again, deleted issues
3) Restarted
4) Ran Spybot, Virtumonde came up again
In addition to this issue, when I start my machine, only hte desktop shows, I have to use ctrl-alt-del and hit "start process" and enter "Explorer" to see anything.
At the moment, the machine in question is not connected to the internet. If you feel it is okay to connect, I can (to speed things along). The HJT log is as follows:
