Gotta love Vundo.

[biveg]

Darn you, Vundo! (And double-darn you lyrics site that infected me with Vundo!)

I've already tried SpyBot, AdAware, Windows Defender, VundoFix (about six times!), and HiJackThis. Some of the files were cleaned, but two of them just keep on coming back. (jkhfe.dll and jkhfe.exe, of course!)

I've also tried running several times VundoFix at bootup. It says it clears the files, but they just come right back.

What am I missing?

Any help is greatly appreciated. First time I've ever had to ask for help for a virus/spy/adware problem!

[biveg]

Replying to my own post as I've been trying to work on the problem ever since. I hesitate to say this, but I think I might have gotten it. It got into my IE and my FireFox, made the internet inaccessible. However, after starting in Safe Mode, running VundoFix and ComboFix, and then deleting a boatload of bogus registry keys using HJT, my computer is back to top speeds and my internet is easily accessible once again. Also, my TeaTimer is no longer losing its mind with constant denials of access to said registry.

But! There might still be something that I'm missing that will make the problem come back. Please take a look at my new log file and let me know if there is anything further I should do:
