I would appreciate any assistance. I have run adaware and spybot and still cannot get rid of the search engine hijacker.

Update your HijackThis to 1.99.1 and also scan with Microsoft Anti-Spyware, then post a log.

Thank you for your assistance. I did as you suggested. It appears the search bar hijacker is now gone. Here is the new log.
