i have been unable to right-click on my desktop for the past 20 hours. in addition, i have noticed that the display of my date/time on the toolbar has been changed.

i have already tried running the following programs in both regular windows mode and safe mode:
spybot search and destroy
ad-aware se personal
a-squared free
trojanhunter
tauscanner
spyware blaster
spyware guard
atf-cleaner
spy sweeper
sophos anti-virus
cwshredder
ren-cmdservice
fxagentb
virtumundobegone

i have been able to remove a bundle of trojans, viruses, etc with the above programs, but not this last bit.

also, in safe mode, i am able to right-click on the desktop but not in regular mode.

below are the log files per the instructions.

Fixed Date/Time Issue, but Still Can't Right-Click on Desktop

i found the function to change the date/time settings. so this has been fixed. (i think a malware must have reset to the defaults.)

however, i am still unable to right-click on my desktop. no menu shows up. is this caused by malware or something else? i've come upon a few more trojans since i first posted, as i have attempted to rescan my machine to fix the issue.

please let me know. thanks.
