Rerun hijackthis and place checks next to these 2 entries.

F3 - REG:win.ini: load=?
F3 - REG:win.ini: run=?

and then click on fix checked at the bottom.

Let me know if you continue to have issues.
 
Get super anti spyware. its a freeware program that will get rid of a lot of spyware I think it is the best program of its kind on the market I use is 2-4 times a week to keep my systems running at there peak. I do use this program combined with maleware bytes though. my best advice would be get both and run one then the other and see what happens from there
