Here are my problems. Every time I run spybot I get the following: Avertising.com, Avenue A Inc, DoubleClick, QuickClick, CasaleMedia. and Windowfirewall disabled notifier.
These don't happen when I startup in safemode and scan.
I was unable to get Panda scan to work. I have Norton Anitvirus(not internet security) and it can't find anyting. I disabled it and tried AVG. No luck there.
I also have a process called monitor.exe that is assosciated with Acer eRecorery, that is using 50% of my CPU. It didn't do that before I had the spyware problem. Here is my HiJack log:

"Avertising.com, Avenue A Inc, DoubleClick, QuickClick, CasaleMedia. and Windowfirewall disabled"

Those are just cookies and the windows security center, Nothing to worry about.

I see you have multiple antivirus programs, not a good idea, uninstall all but one, personal opinion keep avg and uninstall norton.

I usually only run Norton. I though it was messing up, so I installed AVG and disable Norton so they wouldn't trip each other up. Since then I have uninstalled Norton cause my trial period was almost up anyway. Thanks fo rthe advice though. Which is better AVG or Avast?

Either one is fine, not both becouse even if one is partially disabled some of its components still run.

Repeat that proccess about once or twice a month
