Can you help please. I seem to have a malware infestation that is causing slow working on Firefox, sometimes re-direction and premature closing of web pages. I have run Spybot, Adaware, A-squared, Clamwin and Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes has cleaned up most of it, but every run still finds two Trojans (almost immediately), then says it has fixed them, buut they are there on restart and next scan. My system is Windows XP SP3. I have System Restore switched off.

The ClamWin log shows:
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.39
Database version: 2523
Windows 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3
