Elitebar/Search Miracle Problem

I was infected with the Elite bar/Search Miracle spyware yesterday and have been getting loads and loads of popups. I think I have sorted it out by using an Elitebar removal tool and cleaning out loads of other spyware but if you could have a look at my log and let me know if it looks alright that would be great. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, Matt

Well, the best way to know if it works correctly is if you stop getting popups. If you still get popups, run the process again. Even use multiple spyware cleaners. I recommend AdAware and Spybot Search/Destroy together.

The new MS tool does a good job of detecting and "semi"-removing them, but they seem to keep reinstalling, so I guess it is actually useless.

I think its still here?!?

I got rid of elitebar last week or atleast I thought I had, I'm still not sure if i have or not. I ran symantec online scanner and it found a list of adware.elitebar infections in various locations. However, when i follow the removal instructions I am unable to find any of the registry values or files it states to remove. So i am completely confused as to whether I have it or not. Does anyone know cos if they did some help would be great. Should I delete the .exe that the scan brings up manually? Thanks
