Thanks for the tip..
I thought I was pretty much protected because I have all of those installed
except zonealarm and mailwasher.. Verry odd avg didn't detect the trojan
protector.exe that had installed itself to C:\
I have avg set up to automatically update and scan my entire hard drive once
a day...

Whatever it was it did some damage.. Spybot coudn't remove it so I ran
Ad-Aware and it failed also. I then proceded to boot to safe mode I managed
to delete most of the crap with hijackthis but I still had no luck at
removing one dll file.. Safe mode command prompt wouldn't let me remove it
even. I finally got it straightened after booting to last known good config
and then sifting through the registry to try to re-enable windows firewall
which had been totally disabled and greyed out all the options..

Hopefully I've found all of the crap that got on here now..

Sometimes you have to turn off system restore to delete infected
files. Just make sure you turn it back on when you're done, and you
don't want to be oline when your computer is more vulnerable.
