This suggest that you're looking into wrong direction, and real culprit is
something you didn't caught yet.
Try HijackThis http://sourceforge.net/projects/hjt/ to see if there's any
suspicious handlers installed in your system.
Or you may send the logfile to me (off-list!) and I'll try to look for clues
myself.
