Any help is appreciated.

Are there viruses out there that mirror as system files?

Is there a way to find out which is which?

Also, can you get rid of it without harming the computer?

Reason I ask is because the Automatic Updates are turning off automatically and it shows up in the system tray, but when I go to turn them back on, they're already on.

Also, I get pop-ups when I use Internet Explorer (mainly anti-virus software sites pop up), and even certain sites when I use Firefox.

I use Trend Micro for my anti-virus, and I've tried other anti-virus and spyware programs (Spybot, Ad-Aware, AVG, etc.) and they can't find it.

Someone help.

There are viruses that mirror as system files and the only way I know how to get them out is to format the C drive which has the os on it. normally the virus file will be .exe or some other (can't remember) and if it appears within your system files then you can't delete it.

Don't know about the auto update thing.

The pop ups is probably your pop up blocker not working, and Firefox (I use it too) only seems to block one pop up at a time.

Try downloading the trial version of kaspersky and scan your computer.

You can get a bunch of antiviruses here
Anti-Virus Downloads - FileHippo.com

I would avoid Mcafee and norton. But nod32 kaspersky and avira work good enough.

Running your log file through the analyzer shows a a couple nasties I'd suggest reading the hijack this tutorial and removing any bugs you see in the analyzer HijackThis Analyzer & Tutorial

I'd also suggest reading a few threads in the Security and Privacy Issues - Tech Support Forums - TechIMO.com forum, there is tons of advice for removing malware/spyware ect.
