Hi Shaba, I am getting very depressed
I ran GMER in Safe Mode. It took a long time, and the yellow triangle popped up again in the middle of the scan - even in Safe Mode!
It seemed to get a little further than before, but then it stopped abruptly again. I clicked on SCAN, and this time it said that a log had been copied to the clipboard, and I should open Notepad and CTRL-V it in. I opened Notepad (maybe my problem was that I opened it while GMER was still open), but the computer froze before I could copy the log in. Interestingly - while the system was frozen, a pop-up telling me the computer is infected did pop up, but the mouse was frozen, so I had to turn off the computer.
I think I will try it again, but close GMER before I open Notepad.
Here is the re-run startuplist.
