HJT Log Lsass.exe stealing all my CPU cycles

If I log on the computers normal profile it is so slow it is not useable. In taskmanager I can see the file Lsass.exe is using 100% of the CPU cycles. If I log on the administrator profile this does not happen and the puters appears normal.

None of the virus scanners find anything.
Spybot found 1800 Solutions
Ad Aware and Ewido both hang on the same directory;

\\my normal profile\application data\microsoft\protect

This directory has one file and one folder. The file is called Credithistory with no ext. It's a 1K file, I can delete it but it just comes back.

The directory is called S-1-5-21-1935655697-682003330-725345543-1005 if I try and delete it I get an error saying it is in use. If tryto look in it I just get the flashlight like it is about to make viewable the files and it will sit like that indefinately. Searching the registry I find there are several entries to this folder in my registry. Some I can remove and some I can't. They all come right back.

No of the other applications would run completely so I did not get any logs.

I apologize if it didn't seem like I followed all the steps, I tried the best I could. I ran my virus scanner please two from the websites. They found nothing. Only one of the 3 trojan humters would complete and I didn't have the files mentioned to run schredder and the other app.

Can you at leaset poing out which part I missed?

Ok, I downloaded and ran both cwshredder and aboutbuster. Neither found anything. Did I miss any other steps? Can this be moved to the correct forum now?
