help with Click.Giftload hijacker

[Arbix2]

Hello. I would very much appreciate any help that can be offered for this problem. My computer recently contracted the Click.Giftload hijacker and its been making things a living hell. I've run Spybot numerous times to try and get rid of it - no avail. I also ran Malwarebytes anti-malware and avira antivirus; these two programs both found a rash of trojans and rootkits (avira esp.) and removed most of them, though there are some that can't be removed as they call for a restart, which causes my computer to get stuck in a boot loop until I turn the power off. Have tried system restore back to two days but no luck there either.

I've also encountered the error "Generic Host Process for Win 32 services has encountered a problem and needs to close." This causes my computer's sound devices to stop working and system restore to become non-functional.

I've tried to get into microsoft windows update to fix this but my browser can't access those services for some reason.

Also, my browser will randomly try to reroute me or open random windows, or sometimes just act slow.

After all this, Click.Giftload seems to be my only lead.

I would be grateful for any help.

Thanks!

Here's my dds:

Hi ken545,

Thanks for your reply! Before we go further I should tell you that before you posted I had run a few more scans with different programs and so far seem to be in good shape. I ran Kaspersky TDSSkiller which found some more malware and was able to remove it. Following that, I scanned my system with Malwarebytes, Spybot and Avira and was able to pick off a few more. After restarting, Spybot no longer detects Click.Giftload, and my system seems to be stable. I took it out of safe mode and two days on have not encountered any of my previous problems - no windows errors, and I can use windows update again. However, I don't know if I've got something lurking in the shadows.

Here's the aswMBR log:
