Got some malware here....
The-Lovable-Mr--Hater

Hey guys. Everyone in here has always been so helpful, so hopefully you can help with this.
I recently noticed that my microsoft updates had a few that failed. it wasnt a big deal at first, until i started to try and figure out what it was. i did a scan and went to a couple of other sites (my mistake, i should have came here first!) and downloaded a malware remover. loaded the program, went to run the program and it wouldnt load. it gave me the error message " windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. you may not have appropriate permissions to access the item." once again, no big deal. i uninstalled it and rebooted, then the problem started.....
at the windows logon screen (where i installed a password) and this box pops up saying that "The system is shutting down.
Please save all work in progress and log off.Any unsaved changes will be lost.
This shut down was initiated by NT\AUTHORIYSYSTEM Time before shut down(then a countdown starts at 1:00)
Message The system process 'C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\services.exe' terminated unexpectedly with status code -1073741482.The system will now shut down.) "
What the hell is that? so it rebooted for itself, and again the same box popped up. this time, i quickly put my password in and the system booted. now, everything is coming on fine, but im kinda scared to turn it off, since i dont know if its gonna turn back on or not. the help i need is how to remove this malware or whatever is doing this since i cant use a malware remover, as it wont load.
im running windows xp 32 bit (yes i know, i know!)
i have eset antivirus
any other info needed, just ask.
thanks in advance for all the help!

If you still need help,
A few things before we start....
1. Please Read All Instructions Carefully.
2. If you don't understand something, stop and ask! Don't keep going on.
3. Please do not run any other tools or scans whilst I am helping you.
4. If you have to go away for an extended period of time, let me know.
5. Please continue to respond until I give you the "All Clear".
(Just because you can't see a problem doesn't mean it isn't there)
Please download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware by clicking the link below:
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware - Reviews and free Malwarebytes Anti-Malware downloads at Download.com
Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
* Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
* If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
* Once the program has loaded, select "Perform Quick Scan", then click Scan.
* The scan may take some time to finish,so please be patient.
* When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
* Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
* When disinfection is completed, a log will open in Notepad and you may be prompted to Restart.(See Extra Note)
* The log is automatically saved by MBAM and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
* You'll be required to post the contents of this log later.
Please Note:
If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove,you will be presented with 1 of 2 prompts,click OK to either and let MBAM proceed with the disinfection process,if asked to restart the computer,please do so immediately.
Next let's have you download ComboFix.exe. Please visit this webpage for downloading and instructions for running the tool:
Go here ======> A guide and tutorial on using ComboFix <====== Go here
Please ensure you read this guide carefully and install the Recovery Console first.This applies to XP Pro and XP Home users only.If you have SP3 installed you will need to use the download meant for SP2.
The Windows Recovery Console will allow you to boot up into a special recovery (repair) mode. This allows us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware. It is a simple procedure that will only take a few moments of your time.
Once installed, you should get a prompt that says:
The Recovery Console was successfully installed.
Please continue as follows:
(1) Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
(2) Click Yes to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.
When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.
Please include MBAM log, C:\ComboFix.txt and a new HijackThis log for further review, so that we may continue cleansing the system.
Caution: Never run and remove files with Combofix unless supervised by a qualified security analyst who is experienced in the use of Combofix. Misuse can cause serious computer problems.
p.s. i have downloaded malwarebytes already and it says that there is no malware on the system. i also have cccleaner and cleanmypc registry cleaners and used them to fix any issues. everything is "supposed" to be clean.
also, i have seen the "hijack this" comment before. is that a program as well or is that in the combofix program? if i need to download that, can i get that from download.com?

This utility will make a backup of parts of your Windows registry, reset your TCP/IP settings and replace your existing Winsock2 registry entries with a default set and replace your Hosts file with a default one.
If that doesn't restore your internet connection, I will help you rid your computer of all malware first before we tackle this again.
One other thing...is there an Anti Virus Software that you would recommend, or do they all work about the same?
You should uninstall/disable the real-time protection of one of them.
My personal preference is to keep NOD32 and get rid of Norton, which is known as a resource hog.
It's IMPORTANT to carry out the instructions in the sequence listed below.
Please go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall the following if found:
AskBar
Ask Toolbar
AskBarDis
Reboot even if not prompted to.
Next,
1. Close any open browsers.
2. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
Open *notepad* and copy/paste the text in the quotebox below into it:
Save this as CFScript.txt, in the same location as ComboFix.exe which is on the Desktop.
Refering to the picture above, drag CFScript.txt into ComboFix.exe
When finished, it shall produce a log for you at C:\ComboFix.txt
Please copy and paste the ComboFix.txt in your new reply.
*Note:
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall. Altering this script in any way could damage your computer.*
