Working on a PC running WinME
Cleaned up 99% of spyware, but cannot get rid of this one piece. It keeps redirecting the start page to: res://vpqpa.dll/index.html#96676

I've run hjt, cwshredder, adaware se 1.03, spybot 1.3, running regmon & filemon to see if I can catch it in the act.

I tried searching for the affected dll file and removing the contents of that file which is a workaround I came across after googling this. I've also gone through the registry looking for anything unusual (found some things and removed them, but still no help).

Current hjt log:

I've removed the R0's and R1's, but they keep returning.

I'm also a little suspect of:

C:\windows\system\crph.exe
C:\windows\apiqs32.exe
C:\windows\MSMN.exe

I'm not sure exactly what these are, but none of them exist within those directories.

Thanks for any help and not screaming at me for the long post.
