    Yahoo anti spy is junk. Download http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php install, update, quick scan and remove everything it finds and post the log file back here.

    You should only have one antivirus running uninstall either Norton or AVG there both as bad as each other. :p
    I recommend you uninstall them both and install Avira AntiVir http://www.filehippo.com/download_antivir/

    Norton will probably be paid for plus she would get support if there was a problem with it.

    The OP could check http://forums.techguy.org/malware-removal-hijackthis-logs/412639-spamblockerutility.html as the answer is by a Microsoft MVP and I'd say it should work, however the OP in that thread never came back with result of scans!

    Malwarebytes should remove it too.
    My suggestion and/or advice is my own and it is up to you if you follow it, please check the advice given before acting on it.
