cmdService problems

HijackThis! log
Help!

:(
Spybot can't seem to completely remove this. I've tried ATF-Cleaner then Ewido in Safe mode. Spybot can eliminate everything that returns except the cmdServices.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\cmdService
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\cmdService
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet003\Services\cmdService

Selecting the Fix option in Spybot will eliminate the ControlSet003 until the next boot.

I'll include the Ewido report in a separate post as it's rather long. Thanks in advance for your time and effort.

Too long to post or upload. It's available if it will help.

Ran spybot. Still had the three cmdService entires.
Opened regedit.
In spybot, right clicked on the cmdService entries and told it to go to the location.
(This highlighted the appropriate service in regedit.)
Right clicked on the item having the issue and changed the permissions.
I then deleted it, but I suspect at that point that spybot could have taken care of it.

Fortunately it worked and there has been no recurrence, yet. (Computer's primary user has been chastized mercilessly and we are in the process of hardening the entire home network.)

Clean spybot report. Clean Ewido report.

Hi
command service repeatedly showing in SpyBot scan is usually because
of the way Ad-Aware removed it, it leave's a registry key with adjusted permissions.

I need to see a fresh Hijackthis log please
