You definitely have a nasty virus or piece of spyware, but nothing jumps out at me in your log. You might want to try rebooting in safe mode and running NAV there. Also, download and install Spybot Search & Destroy and Ad-Aware, which can be found at these links, respectively: http://download.com.com/3000-8022-10194058.html?tag=lst-0-3 and http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ . If you are having trouble running these two programs in regular mode, run them in safe mode and delete everything found.

Cleaning your computer  - and protecting it in the future -  can't be answered with one issue.

As you can see in my url below there are at least 7 different issues, where you should decide 1 of each, or else you does'nt protect your computer at all.

The reason is, that the many different programs not always protects against each other, and each of them does'nt protect equally.

It's very important, that you study all of these issues in my knowledgebase (some of them are freeware):
http://www.tryware.dk/English/Knowledgebase/HowToProtectYourComputer.html

BTW: I'm using the Trend Micro virus-suite, and SoftScan , and haven't got any of my servers or computers infected since 1999.

Try McAfee's Stinger

Also remember to turn off SYSTEM RESTORE (anyone catching on to this yet:)
http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm

The virus is probably gaobot http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/w32.gaobot.adx.html

Remember turn off system restore, or next boot, you'll have your viri back, TY M$!

"removed them but still when I open regedit, TDS-3, Norton AV the programs will be ended immediately" :

This may caused by corrupted some of system files

Solution :

chkdsk c: /r

ENTER

reboot the machine then let it check and repair curropted system files .

after you logon the windows use the command :

sfc /scannow

ENTER

to restore the corrupted system files .

If Sfc.exe does'nt work, then try to copy all the files from C:\WINNT\system32\dllcache to C:\WINNT\system32
Files Manually Copied to the DLLCache Folder Are Not Used Until the Next Reboot
