Here is the hijack log from the 4500 being submitted from a non infected computer.
Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.2 Scan saved at 2:22:49 PM, on 6/25/2010 Platform: Windows XP SP3 (WinNT 5.01.2600) MSIE: Internet Explorer v8.00 (8.00.6001.18702) Boot mode: Normal
My screenie is kevinf80, i`ll answer to that or Kevin OR Kev. Yep TDSSKiller does a good job on specific Rootkit infections as it obviously has done for you. The big problem is unseen secondary infections. One of the first things that infection does is to open a backdoor and call his buddies in.
You may have been lucky and killed it before that happened, but then again you might not. If you are sure your system is clean, thats fine. If you are unsure please run the following scans for me and copy paste logs to your reply:
MBAM may "make changes to your registry" as part of its disinfection routine. If using other security programs that detect registry changes (ie Spybot's Teatimer), they may interfere or alert you. Temporarily disable such programs or permit them to ALLOW the changes.Instructions available HERE
Make sure you are connected to the Internet.
Double-click on mbam-setup.exe to install the application.
When the installation begins, follow the prompts and do not make any changes to default settings.
When installation has finished, make sure you leave both of these checked:
Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
Then click Finish.
MBAM will automatically start and you will be asked to update the program before performing a scan.
If an update is found, the program will automatically update itself. Press the OK button to close that box and continue.
If you encounter any problems while downloading the definition updates, manually download them from HERE and just double-click on mbam-rules.exe to install.
On the Scanner tab:
Make sure the "Perform Quick Scan" option is selected.
Then click on the Scan button.
If asked to select the drives to scan, leave all the drives selected and click on the Start Scan button.
The scan will begin and "Scan in progress" will show at the top. It may take some time to complete so please be patient.
When the scan is finished, a message box will say "The scan completed successfully. Click 'Show Results' to display all objects found".
Click OK to close the message box and continue with the removal process.
Back at the main Scanner screen:
Click on the Show Results button to see a list of any malware that was found.
Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
When removal is completed, a log report will open in Notepad.
The log is automatically saved and can be viewed by clicking the Logs tab in MBAM.
Copy and paste the contents of that report in your next reply. Be sure to post the complete log to include the top portion which shows MBAM's database version and your operating system.
Exit MBAM when done.
Note: If MBAM encounters a file that is difficult to remove, you will be asked to reboot your computer so MBAM can proceed with the disinfection process. If asked to restart the computer, please do so immediately. Failure to reboot normally (not into safe mode) will prevent MBAM from removing all the malware.
Step 2
Run an online virus scan with
Kaspersky from
HERE. This scan is very thorough and may take several hours to run, please allow it to complete.
1. At the main page. Press on "
Accept". After reading the contents.
2. At the next window Select Update. Allow the Database to update.
Note: If prompted to run or update your Java, then follow the prompts to do so. Kaspersky requires Java to run.
3. Once the Database has finished, under the
Scan icon Select
My Computer to start the scan. The scan may take a few minutes to complete.
4. Select
Scan Report.
5. If any threats were found they will appear in the report
6. Select "Save error report as"
Then in the file name just type in kaspersky
Under "save as type" select
text .txt Save it to your Desktop.
Copy and post the results of the Kaspersky Online scan. If no threats were found then report that as well.
Download Security Check by screen317 from
HERE or
HERE.
Save it to your Desktop.
Double click SecurityCheck.exe and follow the onscreen instructions inside of the black box. Press any key when asked.
A Notepad document should open automatically called checkup.txt; please post the contents of that document.

You`ve still got a nasty infection onboard from what I can see from those logs, there is fix available. Problem is it will re-write the MBR, this is the alert that comes with the tool:
**Important note to Dell users - fixing the mbr may prevent access the the Dell Restore Utility, which allows you to press a key on startup and revert your computer to a factory delivered state. There are a couple of known fixes for said condition, though the methods are somewhat advanced. If you are unwilling to take such a risk, you should not allow the tool to execute mbr -f nor execute the command manually, and you will either need to restore your computer to a factory state or allow your computer to remain having an infected mbr (the latter not recommended).
I noticed you have Acronis running, do you still have the Dell Restore Facility, will this be an issue if we run this tool. Let me know what you want to do?
Follow these instructions carefully and post back the relevent log:
Please download
HelpAsst_mebroot_fix.exe and save it to your desktop. Close out all other open programs and windows.
Double click the file to run it and follow any prompts.
If the tool detects an mbr infection, please allow it to run mbr -f and shutdown your computer.
Upon restarting, please wait about 5 minutes, click Start > Run and type the following bolded command helpasst -mbrt then hit Enter.
Make sure you leave a space between
helpasst and
-mbrt When it completes, a log will open. Please post the contents of that log.
*In the event the tool
does not detect an mbr infection and completes, click Start > Run and type the following bolded command
mbr -f then hit Enter.
Now, please do the Start > Run >
mbr -f command a second time.
Now shut down the computer (do not restart, but shut it down), wait a few minutes then start it back up.
Give it about 5 minutes, then click Start > Run and type the following bolded command
helpasst -mbrt then hit Enter.
Make sure you leave a space between
helpasst and
-mbrt When it completes, a log will open. Please post the contents of that log.

Nice job, that Helpassistant Account has been dealt with so your system should be OK now. Please re-run Kaspersky online scan to double check. Next,
Your Java is current and upto date. However you still have an old version installed Java(TM) 6 Update 7 Please uninstall this from Add/Remove Programs via your control panel. Next,
Your Adobe Acrobat Reader is out of date. Older versions are vulnerable to attack.
Please go to the link below to update.
Adobe Reader Untick the Free McAfee® Security Scan Plus (optional) unless you want it. Next,
Your Windows Security Center is reported not running, do the following to check:
Select > Start > Run In open box type services.msc then tap enter or select ok
In the new window scroll to Security center
Right click on Security Center and select Properties
Under General tab make sure "Startup type" is set to Automatic or Automatic (delayed) if available.
You can start the service now or leave it and it will start on re-boot. Next,
Regarding the out of date cerificate, I seem to remember a similar alert myself. I had to issue an excemption, but am sure there was an option to remember that action. I`ve never had it again. That was through Firefox.
Let me see the log from Kaspersky in your reply, also any specific problems. If Kaspersky is clear you should be good to go. Also post a fresh HJT log please.

I certainly did not expect to see those entries in the Kaspersky log again. Sorry for dragging this on, I want to be 100% sure your system is clean before we give all clear. Please do the following:
Step 1
Please re-open HiJackThis and scan only. Check the boxes next to all the entries listed below. O20 - AppInit_DLLs: c:\windows\system32\ ,yefanopa.dll O21 - SSODL: totejebef - {02dd683a-f78e-4e01-acf7-d3656d2c71d5} - (no file)
Now close all windows other than HiJackThis, then click Fix Checked. Close HiJackThis. Reboot your PC
Copy the text between the dotted lines below to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose Copy): ---------------------------------------------------------------------- :Processes explorer.exe
Return to OTMoveIt3, right click in the "Paste Instructions for Items to be Moved" window (under the yellow bar) and choose Paste.
Click the red Moveit! button.
Copy everything in the Results window (under the green bar) to the clipboard by highlighting ALL of them and pressing CTRL + C (or, after highlighting, right-click and choose copy), and paste it in your next reply.
Close OTM
Note: If a file or folder cannot be moved immediately you may be asked to reboot the machine to finish the move process. If you are asked to reboot the machine choose Yes.
If the machine reboots, the Results log can be found here:
c:\_OTMoveIt\MovedFiles\mmddyyyy_hhmmss.log
Where mmddyyyy_hhmmss is the date of the tool run.
Step 3
Follow these instructions carefully and post back the relevent log:
Please download HelpAsst_mebroot_fix.exe and save it to your desktop. Close out all other open programs and windows.
Double click the file to run it and follow any prompts.
If the tool detects an mbr infection, please allow it to run mbr -f and shutdown your computer.
Upon restarting, please wait about 5 minutes, click Start > Run and type the following bolded command helpasst -mbrt then hit Enter.
Make sure you leave a space between helpasst and -mbrt When it completes, a log will open. Please post the contents of that log.
*In the event the tool does not detect an mbr infection and completes, click Start > Run and type the following bolded command mbr -f then hit Enter.
Now, please do the Start > Run > mbr -f command a second time.
Now shut down the computer (do not restart, but shut it down), wait a few minutes then start it back up. Give it about 5 minutes, then click Start > Run and type the following bolded command helpasst -mbrt then hit Enter.
Make sure you leave a space between helpasst and -mbrt When it completes, a log will open. Please post the contents of that log.
Step 4
Run an online scan again with Kaspersky and post the log.
