About those entries that you cant remove have you tried to remove them in safe mode? To enter safe mode shut down your pc and while it starts up hold F8. Then open up hijack this remove those entries and reboot. As for those programs that you just installed kill box and whatever the other was I have never heard of them and would uninstall them.
Try this program its becoming one of my new favorites it can remove some things other programs wont. Just make sure you update it before you scan.

yes, i believe i have tried to delete the BHO files in safe mode, but I will try again. as i have nothing to lose. I also called the tech support people for panda software and they cant figure out why it wont load or run. They seem to think i have a pop up blocker or something else that is loading that is interefereing with panda. i have panda running on 3 other pcs with no problem.

I have worked on computers in the past, where the malware has totally blocked access to anti-malware software and sites, and perseverance is the only thing that helps in the end, keep running any anti malware programs that will run and deleting whatever is found, including using hijackthis until you are totally fed up, and then some more, you will at some point win.
If the anti malware programs will not update through the normal channels, which can be quite common, download the updates using another computer and install them onto yours manually.
You are using avg, has it found anything or alerted you to any infections? This is completely optional but I would uninstall avg and get this free etrust ez antivirus for 12 months offer.
After you try to remove those entries in safe mode run a2 and see what it comes up with.
EDIT
CaPMans right the only thing you can do is to keep trying. Just remember do not download any more Spyware Adware programs. Their are some really bad ones who can make things worse. If you are about to install a spyware program and your not sure about it just ask someone here just to be safe.
sstaarzz might be having trouble accessing these sites and software downloads that you are suggesting, it often happens.
sstaarzz, can you access the type of sites and software downloads being suggested?
EDIT
Even though the malware is detected by an anti malware app, the app might not be able to fix the different variants that can be around, and the fixes might not become available until a later update, hence the importance of still trying to update your computer in any way possible.
