The sympthoms are the next:
A fake alert icon (a fake shield with the resemblance of WinXP security center alert icon, flashing intermitently between a red one with an X and a blue one with a ?) appears on the system tray without way of being removed or uninstalled. The fake alert displays a text globe saying "System Warning: The system have detected several spywares running on your computer that may cause great damage. Click here to download the up-to-date AntiVirus software.". Upon clicking, Interner Explorer Browser is inmediatelly launched and a page offering a paid AntiVirus to remove the SpyWare (evidently an scam). However, I must add the fact that the aforementioned icon on the systray does not always shows (I have noticed that on some rebootings after a system change, the icon fails to load apparently, for it doesn't shows up, but it shows up again on the next rebooting).
I followed the step-by-steps instructions you proportioned on the forum (I had some problems with the Trend Micro Online Scan, but it seemed to work well once I unloaded WindowBlinds from the memory while running it). So, as the instructions say, here are the requested logs:

On my first attempt using SpyBot S&D 1.4 to remove these adwares, SpyBot S&D systray resident got stuck on a loop trying to remove the aforementioned icon, displaying a flood of system message popups saying that it was unable to remove the icon from the systray, forcing me to restart the system. Since that, SpyBot has not detected any kind of malware/spyware infection, in contrast to the on-line scan. So, please, if someone can give me instructions of how to clean my system of these both spywares, I would be really thankfull. In advance, thank you.
