SpyWare or Malware - serious help needed. Hijacking url's and programs won't begin

Hi,

I think I have a serious problem with my home PC (this is my work laptop).

My sons were playing somewhere and clicked something and they got a virus warning from Norton 2009. They came and got me and I clicked on the action for Norton AV to delete the files (happened twice), but now I am getting:

1. popups on virtually every page I go to - prompting me for go211.com and other sites

2. i've lost the ability to start a lot of programs, including mozilla - when I click on it from the desktop, from program files..etc, from the run bar, etc. It'll show it working for a second and it will be shut down. I can see it starting in taskmanager, but then it disappears. The same thing with Combofix.exe. Shows up for a second and gone.

3. the ability to visit certain URL's - such as http://forums.whatthetech.com/iesearch_hom...slo_t88970.html
I tried copying and pasting into the address bar, clicking by sending myself a link via Yahoo messenger, etc. Nothing works. It goes to the "cannot display the page" error box. (yes, I did enter the correct URL. In fact, I copied it to a text file, moved it over to that pc via my thumb drive and pasted it into the address bar.)

4. i downloaded some of the malware removal things to this pc, copied them to my flash thumb drive and then copied them to the desktop of that pc. I tried running them and they wouldn't run (like Mozilla). These included combofix and mbam-setup.exe (i was able to run ATF-Cleaner)
I WAS able to start to run FixIEDef.exe - it starts but at about halfway through the file system scan, it gives me the following error: "AutoIt Error Line -1" Error: Variable must be of type "Object".

5. google searches will show results, but when I click the links, they will go to different ad sites.

6. inability to start some executables or files - like mozilla, those malware exe's, others.

Otherwise, it "appears" that the computer is running ok. I know I have one of these viruses. Please help me to remove it.

I was just now able to do a Hijack this...here's the result file (i couldn't upload it to trendmicro, i got a "IE cannot display the webpage" error.)
