internet explorer homepage hijacked by bestsafetyguide.net, zlob downloader

Thanks for that new HJT log and it appears clean of malware, good job:bigthumb:

As far as your question about Firefox, while I do have it installed I rarely use it and I was assuming that those programs also protected Firefox.

As far as the Javacool programs, you may be able to get your answer here: http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/ IE-Spyad sets up a list of malware and protects the registry so it would make no difference what the browser is:
