    Welcome to Safer Networking, I wish to be sure you have viewed and understand this information.
    "BEFORE you POST" (READ this Procedure before Requesting Assistance) http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
    All advice given is taken at your own risk.
    Please make sure you have read this information so we are on the same page.

    Pinned (sticky) to the top of this forum, and posted above are the directions, make sure you have read and followed them.

    tashi posted a link to the instructions, since TeaTimer is NOT disabled, I must assume you did not read them?
    This is the malware removal forum and the procedure is here:
    "BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance)
    http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=288
    Another program told me explorer.exe is infected
    What program told you that and exactly what did it tell you?

    I can not promise anything at this point, but if you will read and follow the directions, disable TeaTimer as instructed and provide the information I requested, I will do my very best to help.

    Post a new HJT log once TeaTimer is disabled.

    Post also an uninstall list: Open Hijackthis.
    Click the "Open the Misc Tools" section Button.
    Click the "Open Uninstall Manager" Button.
    Click the "Save list..." Button.
    Save it to your desktop. Copy and paste the contents into your reply.

    I hope I did it right this time. I disabled the teatimer but I did not reboot after doing so. Is this ok? Malwarebytes, Mcafee and Spybot come back clean. When I run a live onecare scan it finds 4 items that cannot be fixed.

    Another program told me explorer.exe is infected
    What program told you that and exactly what did it tell you?
    When I run a live onecare scan it finds 4 items that cannot be fixed.
    What are the items the "onecare scan" finds?

    Are there any malware symptoms at all? The HJT log is showing no malware and you said:
    Malwarebytes, Mcafee and Spybot come back clean.
    I am not even sure you have a problem?

    Hackers are using out of date programs to infect folks more and more,
    Here is a small free tool that lets you know when something needs an update if you are interested:

    If your helper detects the presence of such programs on your computer he/she will ask you to remove them. Help will be withdrawn should you not agree to their removal.

    For your information, Viewpoint is installed by aol probably without your knowledge. I suggest you uninstall this resource waster in Add Remove programs.

    The program that told me explorer.exe is infected was combofix which a friend told me to try. I am running the onecare scan again so I can give you the exact name of the infected files. Windows Defender finds nothing but I will run a scan again before replying again just to be sure. I am also going to uninstall all the programs you mentioned that are on my computer.

    No there are no malware symptoms. My computer was attacked on the 13th of March and I spent the weekend trying to return it to a normal state. That appeared to be done however I am still finding things with the onecare scanner that it cannot remove. Sorry to get off subject but your avatar is awesome.
