Hello ng, I'm Steve! How are you?

For a few, something disabled AntiVir Guard. Also, the Avira.com homepage was blocked.

This must be some sort of malware or virus, therefore. Right?

I scanned with Avira AntiVir Personal and Search & Destroy. Avira AntiVir found two
infections but the probs still persist.

Now I'm scanning with TrendMicro HouseCall. Nor sure what the results will be.

Can someone please help?

Help with what? Seems you are on the right track. I use the free
Windows firewall and the free Microsoft Security Essentials, and it
seems to get the job done. On some other machines like a laptop I use
Comodo, though I typically do not check the "use Comodo DNS servers"
option, as that option, while sound, might complicate things since I
travel all over the world and don't like to rely on just Comodos DNS
servers. I also use Avira.

These programs are roughly the same, some slightly better than
others. It's like different brands of cigarettes, they all pretty
much get the job done, which is to deliver nicotine into your system.
