Thanks for the support guys, but I fear that a re-install using product recovery DVD is inevitable. Web browsers can't work properly, antivirus won't update, ad-aware found some stuff but cleaned it(system still unstable). Only thing I haven't tried is spybot although I doubt any effect will be achieved. The link about VISTA ANTIVIRUS 2008 well I CAN NOT OPEN IT. Almost any link i try with Opera, Firefox, Internet Explorer 7 does not load even if I try directly - same deal. :mad::mad::mad:
Oh yeah the other thing that I have not tried is banging my head in the wall or taking a big hammer and making my laptop a bit more portable. :D:D:D

Download MalwareBytes' AntiMalware - trust me they jumped right on this malware quickly and have gotten really good at detecting it.

It will take a long time but perform a full scan not a quick scan.

Yes, MalwareBytes WILL clean the Zlob trojan off your machine. That's what you were hit with, the Zlob Trojan...although you may have more then one thing happening there but MalwareBytes should help with that too.
Unfortunately tho, I do have to agree that sometimes it's just best to wipe the darn thing and start over again, especially if more than a "few" versions of Malware have been found.

Well more than a "few" is my case :). You see so far I ran: Ad-aware, mallwarebytes' antimalware, spywaredoctor, kaspersky online, spybot and a few other. The total number of infections from spyware, malware and adware is ABOVE 250. I have also deleted about 30+ virus infections from the system, BUT one problem persist something called www.007guard.com as far as I understand it's somekind of hijacker and thus far I haven'e been able to fix the stupid thing. It's really annoying because for example when I try to go to bitdefender's website I can't. Running a traceroute in the command prompt shows ONLY 1 hop which is to to the above mentioned so called site. I will search through the forum for such a problem and if there isn't a thread about it I will create one.
PS:Thank you guys for the support :)

And yet the problem remains. Yes Anti Malware found a few infections. Yes it removed them. NO the problem did not go away. Some times the page just does not load sometimes this shows up:
"Content Encoding Error
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression"
Maybe the problem is that all
BITDEFENDER shows only HTTP error when I attempt to update.
SPYWARE DOCTOR - the same
AVAST! - the same
Links in sites - the same - Fresh example I CAN NOT open the link in the second post on how to remove the spyware (or whatever it is) VISTA ANTIVIRUS 2008 at least not in vista. In XP works fine, I even had to run UBUNTU Linux 8.0.4 so that I can run Kaspersky ONLINE properly.
No offense my friend but as good as a program Anti Malware is id did not help me in m case.
And so the search for a cure continues...
