A couple of days back I installed this software called 'msn block checker'. Well very soon I came to realise that it contained spyware and was opening unsolicited webpages on my computer. Anyhow upon deletion of the software from my system either some part of its code was left onboard or it created some backdoor since after that I've been attacked by dozens of different spyware programs.
I've managed to remove all of them, still there are unsolicited webpages opening up on my system.
I am currently using the following softwares to clean up the system and all of them are showing a clean system. (Now I've no idea as to why are ad-webpages still opening up on my system :|)

1. Adware
2. Spybot
3. A-Squared
4. Microsoft Anti-Spyware
5. Avast
6. Trend Micro Anti-Spyware
7. Eiwdo Anti-Malware


Out of all of these software only Eiwdo has shown a couple of infected files

[3600] C:\WINDOWS\system32\rrsutils.dll -> Spyware.Look2Me : Error during cleaning
[608] C:\WINDOWS\system32\rrsutils.dll -> Spyware.Look2Me : Error during cleaning

After this I ran the automated removal tool for Look2ME by Symantic but it came up with the message at the end of the scan that my computer is not infected with Look2Me spyware.

Following is my log from hijackthis, I hope you people will be able to help me out here...
