Oh crappers, after format & fresh install, some more issues

[dfresh000]

Just did a format & fresh install last night, XP SP2. All going well until I cant get on the MS update site & a bunch of other security based sites. Stinks (again!) Investigated hosts file issues as well, no good. Spy Bot found a few infections, removed but still having issues. Malwarebytes scan done as well as HJT, logs to be attached - thanks again for all your help guys !
Much appreciated !

lovely.. looks reader_s has reared its ugly head on my PC. from what i read this is a real bitch to get rid of. Would you suggest some sort of removal technique, low level format of the drive & then a fresh install ?? That's the basics of what I have been reading.

Also, I had an external drive hooked up last week, but pulled it once the system started acting funny. Any suggestions on cleaning that up as well ? TIA

This was solved, right?
