BytePingPhone toolbar & svchost.exe is at 99% CPU usage

tyr · Guest

i cant get rid of a damn toolbar that calls itself "BytePingPhone". And I dont know why svchost.exe is at 99% CPU usage...something is affecting it. here is my hijackthis log. i already ran ad-aware, webroot spysweeper, spybot search and destroy, the cleaner, and AVG AV. thanks for any help anyone can give. if you prefer to email me, you can do so at: verahta at hotmail dot com. i really appreciate any help anyone can give. and i dont know if it matters or not, but i just got rid of 3 trojans, all binet. belt.exe, bi.dll, biprep.exe, biini.cab and so on and so on. had like 6 associated files for Downloader.Stubby.A and PSW.Bispy.A and B. here is my hijackthis log file.

I have gone out on a limb a little bit with these two:
I dont find any info on google on them-they just seem like the kind of random file creation stuff that spells trouble.
If you want to be conservative on these, instead of the file and folder deletions I suggest below, just rename the two exec files and see if there is system improvement.
You can then go back and delete them late if appropriate.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [free time] C:\PROGRA~1\LIESCH~1\For math trans.exe

Disable XP's system restore.
Run HijackTHis, tick to fix:

Reboot to safe mode, delete:

C:\PROGRA~1\MULTI4~1 <---folder

C:\WINDOWS\System32\ifsedt32.exe <---- file
C:\PROGRA~1\LIESCH~1 <----folder

reboot and see how it goes.
