Begin2Search problem?

Unknown

I would really appreciate some help with a spyware problem. I'm using IE and it's started to highlight and link particular words on websites. I'm also getting a lot of pop-up ads which I'm sure are not related to the websites I'm visiting. I'm fairly sure it's caused by a toolbar that appeared on my computer on Monday - it's called Begin2Search. I've used Spybot - Search and Destroy and Adaware but neither have managed to identify or remove it.

At the same time I also had several icons appear on my desktop, including .exe files called TVM_B5, 06wu29rd, 449166, newdevin and suiteinstall. There have also been several icons which are just links to various websites, such as credit card offers or dating websites. I don't know if these are related to the Begin2Search toolbar or are a seperate problem, but they appeared at almost exactly the same time. Is it safe to simply delete them from my desktop or are they part of a bigger problem?

Thanks in advance if anyone is able to help!

Then find and locate the files listed above and Quarentine Them.

Once you have done that, reboot, scan with HijackThis again, and post a new log.

I've done all that, this is the HijackThis log now. As far as I can tell the Begin2Search toolbar is gone and there are no more highlighted words and pop-ups, but all the new icons are still showing up on my desktop.

All I see that is bad is this:

Other than that it looks clean. Maybe the other mods can find something I might have overlooked? Fix the above entry, and see if that fixes your icon problems.
