Newbie Needing Help on Search Assistent, Search Extender, Shopping Wizard, and ...

I have Home Search Assistent, Search Extender, Shopping Wizard, and a New Button on my Browser (a red Exclamation point thats says it helps remove spyware) on my computer. Ive downloaded and ran Spybot S&D, AD-Aware Personal SE, Norton Antivirus Scan, HJT, and HSRemover. All the programs are stil on my computer but i can actually use my AIM now... I tried to go through the removal guide but im totaly clueless on how to do alot of the end of the post stuff. I do not have a printer so i cant print-out the hjt log. Ill post the log i saved below [I deleted everything on the log].

    Have you rebooted since you posted that log? If you have, please post a new one. I need to give you precise removal instructions and rebooting will void them.

    Fix those entries then find and delete AntiVirus.exe, reboot and post a new log.

    Ok i fixed those things, but the button came back and I can't find antivirus.exe anywhere on my comp. It still wont let me click certain things (like the search files and folders option) but i seared documents then checked search hidden files and folders so it did the whole search... i think. My windows still wont show up on the startbar.

    Did you find one of the known bad services as described in Step 4 of the Removal Guide?

    If not, please click here and follow the instructions in that post to run the program "Get Active Services." Run that, and when it opens a report in Notepad, copy the report of your active services, and post it here.
