it seems there si something wrong in the Registry (!!!!)
I downloaded and ran CWSheredder, Ad-aware (already had
this one),Spybot and all of them found malware in the
registry. I ran them like 3 times and "fix" the problems
and when I restarted the PC the programs where agian in
the registry
   
This is the last result for Ad-aware

Jeired RegKey Malware HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT:CLSID\{707e6f76-
9ffb-4920-a976-ea101271bc25}\
 Jeired RegKey Malware
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE:SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersi
on\Explorer\Browser Helper Objects\{707e6f76-9ffb-4920-
a976-ea101271bc25}\
 Jeired RegValue Malware
HKEY_CURRENT_USER:Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\UrlSearchHooks\

I used HijackThis and I am trying to poste the log in the
forums chats to see if someone can help me.

I'm starting to worry about this!
