Hello and welcome to the forum:) Just briefly, you appear to have the Smitfraud trojan:
O21 - SSODL: altmannsberger - {210b4043-35ca-4aa0-8796-191f9663dfb3} - C:\WINDOWS\system32\vpxnk.dll
See this >>> http://www.castlecops.com/o21list-51.html the hackers keep moving their junk around and it gets harder and harder to remove it. Understand, these lowlifes are in it for the money and have no concern for your personal property. Legitimate business even pay them. If you would like to register your feelings, this is where you can do that:
http://forum.malwareremoval.com/viewtopic.php?t=7605
Before we start, the directions for positioning HJT were not followed correctly. These are the directions:
First put hijackthis into a permanent folder.
Do this first - go to C: and create a new permanent folder.
Example C:\AntiSpyWare or C:\hijackthis
This is necessary to ensure you have backups should anything go wrong.Yours looks like this: C:\Program Files\hijackthis.exe, please return to C:Program Files and right click on a blank spot then make a new folder called HJT. Move the log that is there and HJT.exe into that folder. It will look like this: C:\Program Files\HJT\hijackthis.exe and be able to safely store backups should we need them. Please do this before you proceed.
Thanks to S!Ri, and any others who helped with this fix.
Please download SmitfraudFix (http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix.zip) (by S!Ri)
Extract the content (a folder named SmitfraudFix) to your Desktop.
Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #1 - Search by typing 1 and press "Enter"; a text file will appear, which lists infected files (if present).
Please copy/paste the content of that report into your next reply.
Note : process.exe is detected by some antivirus programs (AntiVir, Dr.Web, Kaspersky) as a "RiskTool"; it is not a virus, but a program used to stop system processes. Antivirus programs cannot distinguish between "good" and "malicious" use of such programs, therefore they may alert the user.

Please print out or copy these instructions/tutorial to Notepad as the internet will not be (while in Safe Mode) available to you at certain points of the removal process. Make sure to work through all the Steps in the exact order in which they are listed below. If there's anything that you don't understand, ask your question(s) before moving on with the fixes.
First download ewido anti-spyware from HERE (http://www.ewido.net/en/download/) and save that file to your desktop.
This is a 30 day trial of the program
Once you have downloaded ewido anti-spyware, locate the icon on the desktop and double-click it to launch the set up program.
Once the setup is complete you will need run ewido and update the definition files.
On the main screen select the icon "Update" then select the "Update now" link.
Next select the "Start Update" button, the update will start and a progress bar will show the updates being installed.
Once the update has completed select the "Scanner" icon at the top of the screen, then select the "Settings" tab.
Once in the Settings screen click on "Recommended actions" and then select "Quarantine".
Under "Reports"
Select "Automatically generate report after every scan"
Un-Select "Only if threats were found"
Close ewido anti-spyware, Do Not run a scan just yet, we will shortly.
Reboot your computer into SafeMode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight SafeMode then hit enter.
_____________________________________________
C. Open the SmitfraudFix Folder, then double-click smitfraudfix.cmd file to start the tool.
Select option #2 - Clean by typing 2 and press Enter.
Wait for the tool to complete and disk cleanup to finish.
You will be prompted : "Registry cleaning - Do you want to clean the registry ?" answer Yes by typing Y and hit Enter.
The tool will also check if wininet.dll is infected. If a clean version is found, you will be prompted to replace wininet.dll. Answer Yes to the question "Replace infected file ?" by typing Y and hit Enter.
A reboot may be needed to finish the cleaning process, if you computer does not restart automatically please do it yourself manually. Reboot in Safe Mode.
The tool will create a log named rapport.txt in the root of your drive, eg: Local Disk C: or partition where your operating system is installed. Please post that log along with all others requested in your next reply.
____________________________________________
D. Clean out your Temporary Internet files. Proceed like this:
Quit Internet Explorer and quit any instances of Windows Explorer.
Click Start, click Control Panel, and then double-click Internet Options.

Next Click Start, click Control Panel and then double-click Display. Click on the Desktop tab, then click the Customize Desktop button. Click on the Web tab. Under Web Pages you should see a checked entry called Security info or something similar. If it is there, select that entry and click the Delete button. Click Ok then Apply and Ok.

______________________________
F. Open the SmitfraudFix folder and double-click smitfraudfix.cmd
Select option #3 - Delete Trusted zone by typing 3 and press Enter
Note, if you use SpywareBlaster and/or IE-SPYAD, it will be necessary to re-install the protection both afford. For SpywareBlaster, run the program and re-protect all items. For IE-SPYAD, run the batch file and reinstall the protection.

Thanks for returning your information. Please use the "Post Reply" button on the left, do not Quote all of my instructions, thanks.
You have used the Search function in SmitfraudFix twice. We established the infection is there is the first search. Please read the instructions carefully. That is very important. Here is a tutorial:
http://siri.urz.free.fr/Fix/SmitfraudFix_En.php
Please complete #2 and #3 and then post the c:\rapport.txt and a new HJT log. I do not need another ewido scan report.
Thanks

I need to see these HJT logs in Normal Mode please. This log appears to be clean, I will know more when I see a complete log.
Is this Firewall part of Norton Internet Security? In your Security Center, do you have the SP2 firewall turned off as it should be if you are running a third party firewall?
My suggest, since I do not use Norton, would be to contact technical support for help with that issue.
http://www.symantec.com/techsupp/
It is likely the infection has corrupted the software, and you may need to uninstall and re-install it. I would suggest you have a service support tecnician tell you that and how to do it.
Post the complete HJT log while running in Normal Mode, and if you are still clean, I will get you on your way with some valuable closing information.
Thanks
THE FIREWALL IS WINDOWS. BUT THE SPYBOT SYSTEM STARTUP TELL ME THAT THE FILE FOR THE NORTON IS A MALWARE FILE. IT IS C:\Program File\Commom Files\Symantec Shared\ccApp...TELLS ME IT IS ADDED BY THE OBSORB TROJAN. WHEN I UNCHECK THIS MY NORTON DOES NOT WORK.
THANKS ZEBRA:confused:

Thanks for posting a log I can work with, let's try to wrap this up. If you are having a problem with the Service Pack #2 firewall which is part of your Security Center (make sure no other firewall is running) then contact Microsoft for help with the issue:
http://support.microsoft.com/
If you are talking about this program:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\ccApp.exe
This is an important part of your Symantec program, see this:
http://www.castlecops.com/startuplist-524.html
Name ccApp
Command ccApp.exe
Status Y
Description Part of Norton AntiVirus 2003. Auto-protect and E-mail check will not function without this
You can check it here in one of these free online scanners if you must.
http://virusscan.jotti.org/
http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus
http://www.virustotal.com/flash/index_en.html
If Spybot if flagging this, it must be an error, you can ignore it or set Spybot to ignore it in the future, you can find that information in the tutorial.
Open the Program, click on Help at the top then Tutorial.
Here is some great information from Tony Klein, Texruss, ChrisRLG and Grinler to help you stay clean and safe online:

ewido is a great program but it does use some resources. Once the trial is over you can update and use the scanner for as long as you wish, but unless you purchase it you should turn it off completely so it does not run unless you start it manually.
System Restore does not know the good files from the bad. In case bad stuff has gotten into your System Restore files, follow the instructions in this link to get clean System Restore files. Turn it off, reboot then turn it back on:
