I don't know, we use this scan all of the time with no problems?

Try this one:

Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to your desktop.
http://www.besttechie.net/tools/mbam-setup.exe

* Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
* Be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select Perform FULL SCAN, then click Scan.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When completed, a log will open in Notepad. Please save it to a convenient location. The log can also be opened by going to Start > All Programs > Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware > Logs > log-date.txt
* Please post contents of that file & a new HJT log in your next reply.

Thanks

Not sure.

The computer seems to be running fine. Internet windows don't seem to be popping up randomly.

With the teatimer off (I think that is what did it) Spybot is not giving me warnings every few seconds. Teatimer needs to go back on though.

As I said, the auto-update turned itself back on. And I can restart the System Restore Points. If the old ones do magically reappear, I don't think I will be using them.

The only thing I seem to be currently missing is my desktop background, somewhere along the way it disappeared and became a slate blue. Once again pretty easily fixed, and probably not a sign of continuing problems.

Are there any specific things I should be doing to prevent this in the future?

I normally run Spybot, and Avast regularly.
 
OK, sounds good, I will post closing information for you so you can benefit from it and will give you a few days before I close the topic to watch the computer. Do read these instructions from experts, the information will go a long way towards preventing further infections. Before I post that information:

1) If you run TeaTimer, enable it now.

2) Use these instructions to make sure all System Restore points are clean:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/tips/mcgill1.mspx

3) These may help with the Desktop issues.

1) Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
Double-click Display, click the Desktop tab, and then click Customize Desktop.
Select Restore Defaults

2) http://www.onecomputerguy.com/desktop.htm

3) http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

It all went bad

It was working fine midday yesterday.

Last night when I turned it on to try and put the rest of it back to normal, it boots almost directly to the blue screen saying that it has been shut down to prevent further damage.

I love computers.
 
I must have error messages word for word. It could even be a one time thing, I have gotten that message before. When you post the error message, post also a new HJT log so I can take a look.

I am also going to advise a diagnostic here:

Tutorial: http://www.pcpitstop.com/techexpress/howto1.asp
Help with results: http://pcpitstop.invisionzone.com/index.php?showforum=6

If you post a link to the test results, I may spot something. Please make sure the link you post takes me to the test results. If you are unsure, look at what others are posting at the forum I posted a link to.

Thanks
