I did check that early on and it was infected..so I got rid of everything except the line for local host that should be there. I just ran combofix a 2nd time and it said the same things as hitman pro said..that explorer.exe in windows.0 was infected and restored it..and that winlogon.exe in windows.0 was also infected, but was NOT able to restore it for some reason. So that's the latest thing I am working on.
