Reboot in SAFE MODE. Run HJT. Fix:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [rsqurkiwffpfw] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\lhzedtt.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winupd] C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\winupd.exe
(This guy usually indicates a virus:
http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.beagle.m@mm.html
Run a full virus scan in safe mode after you are done in HJT.)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [ybslkv] C:\WINDOWS\ybslkv.exe
Then, stay in SAFE MODE, and manually locate each of the .exe files in the entires above. You may need to set your system to show Hidden Files and Folders: http://www.short-media.com/forum/showpost.php?p=172588&postcount=3
Move these files to a new folder called :C:\Quarantine. Rename the the .exe's to .xxx. That way you can always replace them if it somehow turns out that one or more of these are necessary files....which is not likely, but quarantining is safer than deleting them.
Now, reboot normally, and check things out. Come let us know how it worked. Run a new HJT scan, and post the log here for further review.
