I downloaded hijackthis and ran a scan. Can you please review and tell me what files, if any, are bad and need to be removed. Here is a copy of the scan:

Thanks a bunch!

I also should add that my computer keeps wanting me to use "vista internet security" it pops up several different windows and try to start scanning my computer; saying i have lots of virus, trojans, etc. Malwarebyes and McAfee scans were run, but it says no virus or anything bad found.

Hi welcome to daniweb,
Try this:
Now this really works better if you can do this using another clean computer and a flash drive. The file should be downloaded to the flash drive and taken to the infected computer. I am not certain this will work downloading directly to the infected computer as the infection may try to stop it but you can try.
Download FixExe.req

Double-click on the FixExe.reg file. When Windows prompts whether or not you want to allow the data to be added to your computer, click on the Yes button.
Then you should be able to update MBA-M and run a full system scan with it. Have it remove all that is found.
Reboot if it says it must. Post back here with that MBA-M log.
