Win32.Palevo

Hello,
I'm infected and I would like some help in removing this nasty and any others I may not be able to find. I attempted to run DDS but every time I do it doesn't give me the logfile and it locks up my computer. Before I read the "before you post" thread I ran Ccleaner (windows, applications and registry cleaners). I also missed the instructions on how to turn off teatimer properly so I used the Ccleaner startup section to do it. After I read how to properly disable teatimer I did so and re-enabled the other check box in that same folder where you are supposed to uncheck the teatimer checkbox I also saved the results of that move (see below). I also ran Spybot which found Win32.Palevo but it hasn't been able to remove it. My definitions are up to date. I had AVG but it didn't find anything. I uninstalled it and installed Avira it didn't find anything either. I'm running firefox with adblock plus and noscript installed.

Here is the top part of the spybot log:
Win32.Palevo: [SBI $3437A25D] Settings (Registry value, nothing done)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Taskman=...C:\RECYCLER\*\*.exe...

Here is the log entry from when I disabled teatimer via spybot (after Ccleaner):
7/26/2011 11:46:07 AM Allowed (based on user decision) value "SpybotSD TeaTimer" (new data: "") deleted in System Startup user entry!
 
Hi,

Please download and run this. Let the settings be as default and run. Post back the logs it creates.
 
Ok, thanks for letting us know. I'll close the topic then :)
