I have both the super spider and the here4search spyware programs on my computer. None of the anti-ad/spyware programs I have tried have worked.

OK Cheesy, as luck would have it, I can pretty much fix up this infection. After reading up on it, and checking out an experts work. Below you will find my results and recommendations. Please read ALL instructions carefully BEFORE proceeding.
Your version of HiJackThis is outdated, please click the 'Config' button, on HJT, then click the 'Misc. Tools' buttons and click the 'Check for Updates Online' button for the newest version of HJT, v 1.98.2
Should that fail to work try one of these links:
http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip
http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.exe
Please go to Bit Defender and do an online scan. Let me know what the scan finds.
You have a variant of CoolWebSearch infection. Please follow the link below, to CWShredder(current v. 1.59.1). DL the app, then run, and FIX ALL VARIANTS IT FINDS.
CWShredder v1.59.1
Run it in 'Safe Mode' please.
Please follow these instructions, exactly, for proper HJT installation. Please place HJT into ITS OWN FOLDER.
You can do this by going to My Computer (Windows key+e) then double click on C: then right click and select New then Folder and name it HJT. (C:\HJT\HijackThis.exe)Move HijackThis.exe into this folder. When you run HijackThis from C:\HJT folder and have it "Fixed checked" it will create a backup file of modifications to use if restore is necessary which is easily accessible.
Uninstall Spyware Killa. Read about Rogue/Approved Anti Security apps for reasons why.
Please look over the following entries I have listed, check the boxes next to them and press the "Fix Checked" button with HijackThis. When you are doing this, make sure you have No IE windows, or other browsers open, including this one. Reboot If I have specified below, and post a fresh HijackThis log.

Reboot, into safe mode, this way:
Turn on the computer
Immediately begin tapping the <F8> key.
Use the arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode and press the <Enter> key.
Also, enable the 'Show Hidden Folders' option, like this:
Click Start.
Open My Computer.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
Select the View Tab. Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
Click Yes to confirm.
Click OK.
And search for, then delete, if found, (some may not be present after previous steps) the following files/folders:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\jmevavyh6goon.dll <<<--file
C:\WINDOWS\System32\matrixhere.exe <<<--file
C:\PROGRA~1\SPYWAReKilla<<<<---folder
winlogin.exe <<<--file ***NOTE spelling: winlogIN NOT winlogON
To exit Safe Mode, click the Start button, click Turn Off Computer, click Restart.
Post a new HJT log please. _________________

OK Cheesy, your log now looks clear of malware,nice job.
This is crucial
You still need to visit Windows Update Page. But I would suggest not DLing the new XPSP2 just yet. Still kinda buggy at this point. If you look on the boards, there are a couple of threads about it, along with some interesting links.
We have 2 more things to do, to help ensure you have removed all the little 'leftovers' which may be hiding:
Empty the TIF (Temporary Internet Files)
Delete all the files in (and any subfolders of) the C:\Windows\Temp\ folder
The app below will help with temp files
Index.dat Suite
This would also be a good time to set a new system restore point for your machine.
Set New System Restore Point
Also, as you are an XP user, if there are any other accounts on this machine, they too, must be cleaned with AdAware, Spybot S&D, then HJT. Not all infections are global, nor are all the HJT fixes global. Please start a new thread/topic for other user accounts.
Now that you have regained control of your machine, lets keep it clean. Please follow the links below to ensure the highest possible level of protection against any further invasions. The links and the apps are some of the most highly regarded apps in the field of security/protection & detection. Run AdAware & Spybot at least once a week, depending on your surfing habits.
Spybot Search & Destroy v 1.3
Ad-Aware
With AdAware and Spybot: DL, check for updates, then scan, repair/remove/quarantine anything found. Reboot before next scan with whichever app is next.
Spyware Blaster & Spyware Guard
Both of these apps prevent installation of nasties and are proactive.
With Spyware Blaster and Spyware Guard, just DL, check for updates, enable protection, and your done!
Check my site via the link below for more tips regarding security and ad/mal/spyware. The apps listed above are just a START, there is always more that can, and SHOULD be done. More apps can be found on my site.
Confused about which apps are good or not? Read about Rogue/Approved Anti Security apps
Keep track of updates for ALL your security needs here:
