Avast! tells me that my PC has a Win32:Zlob-BN infection but is unable to remove it. Zonealarm tells me that gdnFR2218.exe keeps trying to access the internet - destination IP 207.226.177.100:HTTP
Please help me remove this malware.
Below I have posted the HijackThis v1.99.1 Logfile and the SmitFraudFix v2.61 rapport.txt file.
Thanks, Ben.
