I meant to say I have a Backdoor.Bot infection which I have "cleaned" several times, and neither Trend Micro internet security or Malwarebytes can remove it. They say they do but Backdoor.Bot returns.

I first thought I had an infection a few days ago as Malwarebytes would just disappear about when it got into the last stages of a scan. No Log was generated and no infection found.

One of the Malwarebytes updates later allowed scans to complete, that's where the came from, but now, once again Malwarebytes shuts down before completion. That's why the log above is from yesterday.

Following your instructions @ http://www.malwarebytes.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=9573 I downloaded HIJACK THIS, which came up with an error when first run and the log I pasted above.

As I was writing up this forum entry the computer went into a " hardware" BSOD, my first for many years. No hardware changes though and seems to be OK right now.

Any help, advice or direction on what to do would be appreciated.
