    Unhappy Windows Security Center continually disables and google redirects

    Hi, I'm looking for some help! I had a trojan/worm computer virus last month and took it to my school's ITS center (5 days before my masters thesis was due...). My computer is much better overall, but my taskbar always says Windows Security Center is disabled -- I went through Run: services.msc and made it automatic, but after about 30 seconds it turns off again.
    Also, almost every time I click a link from google, I get re-directed thru bywill.net to bing.com It's incredibly frustrating, and I know it means there is something lingering on my PC.
    I have run avast, ad-aware, SUPERanti-spyware, spybot SD, and malwarebyte almost daily over the last week, and don't seem to find anything substantial. What should I do?

    This is the HJT report:

    Hello js2363,

    In case you missed it please see the FAQ which also includes guidelines for this forum and instructions in post #2 on how to provide the preliminary "DDS" logs used for analysis.
    "BEFORE You POST"(Please read this Procedure Before Requesting Assistance)

    Then if this is a personal computer start a new topic providing the logs and a volunteer analyst will advise you when available.

    Best regards.
