I cleaned a friend's PC last night.
there were 5 Browser Helper Objects, 2 were legit. I still haven't found out what the other 3 were (disabled them with the tool), but it made sense for him to change all passwords.

Lets just say that his wife might not have been happy with what was in the cache for sites visited. ;)

I'd recommend to download the BHODemon software and take a look at your bhos.
