In my infinite wisdom of running a rogue .exe I'm pretty sure that is the root cause of these lingering effects of some spyware/malware I cannot seem to rid my computer of. I have tried the usual suspects of Ad-Aware, Spybot, and AVG. The biggest problems are not being able to use google in Firefox, as any link from a search links to a bogus url. Windows Update will not load at all in IE, and various scripted buttons will not function properly in Firefox as well, such as posting this thread (using the laptop at the moment). Below is the hijackthis logfile. I'm not sure what other information could help someone with more software knowledge than myself help shed light on the situation. And thanks in advance for someone helping myself out.

try killing anything associated with


C:\Program Files\Common Files\Motive\McciCMService.exe



doing a little googleing its malware.
 
Well deleting the directory that it was in didnt really fix anything, paying for Spyware Doctor apparently did.
 
I've dealt with this before...go into safe mode, run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and you'll be golden.
