The fact that you were infected with so much malware should tell you that AVG sucks.:eek:

First I would fix the following, then I would uninstall AVG & Zone Alarm and then use jv16 powertools (http://www.jv16.org) to clean out your registry. Then follow the rest of what I suggest.

R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Bar = http://in.rd.companion.yahoo.com/slv...search/ie.html
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main,Search Page = http://in.rd.companion.yahoo.com/slv.../www.yahoo.com
R1 - HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL,(Default) = http://in.rd.companion.yahoo.com/slv...om/search?p=%s
R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing
F3 - REG:win.ini: load=D:\WINDOWS\rundl132.exe
O2 - BHO: Class - {4EAE2070-5B93-6236-A33C-739C546C3F7C} - D:\WINDOWS\ikhhe1.dll (file missing)
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [gwiz] D:\WINDOWS\System32\ntsystem.exe

Prior to doing anything XP users MUST disable System Restore!!! You can re enable it after you are clean.

1. Download, install and run CrapCleaner (http://www.ccleaner.com) to remove any temporary and junk files.

2. Download Ad-Aware SE 1.06 (http://www.majorgeeks.com/download506.html) and set it up as shown HERE (http://www.drtweak.com/index.php?topic=40.0).

3. Download SpyBot Search & Destroy 1.4 (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=download) and set it up as shown HERE (http://www.drtweak.com/index.php?topic=41.0).

4. Download SUPERAntiSpyware (http://www.superantispyware.com), update and do a full system scan.

5. Download Ewido Anti-Malware 4.0 (http://www.ewido.net/en/download), update and do a full system scan.

6. Download and run CWShredder (http://www.trendmicro.com/cwshredder).

7. Do a FREE online virus scan from BitDefender Online Scan (http://www.bitdefender.com/) and remove all that it finds.

8. If you aren't currently using a firewall or anti-virus profram then I suggest you install Comodo Firewall (http://www.personalfirewall.comodo.com/) and Active Virus Shield (http://www.activevirusshield.com/antivirus/freeav/index.adp?) - (setup instructions HERE (http://www.drtweak.com/index.php?topic=157.0)), both are FREE and offer excellent protection.

9. It it also a good idea to run the Winsock Fix (http://www.snapfiles.com/get/winsockxpfix.html) to repair your TCP/IP stack. (you will have to redo any tweaks for your connection if this is used)

10. If after doing ALL of the above and you are still having problems please scan with HijackThis 1.99.1 (http://www.majorgeeks.com/download3155.html) as shown HERE (http://www.drtweak.com/index.php?topic=58.0) and post a log here in this forum for us to look at.

11. Download SpywareBlaster 3.5.1 (http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html) and set it up as shown HERE (http://www.drtweak.com/index.php?topic=42.0) to help stay spyware free.

12. Make sure you have ALL of the latest Windows Updates.
