Before fixing anything with hijackthis, please move it into it's own permanent folder (like c:\HJT\hijackthis.exe) so it doesn't get deleted and so the backups it will create don't get deleted either. Right now you have it in a Temp folder. Please post a new log after you've moved it.

If you like, you can go ahead and do these now:

Go to Add/Remove Programs in your Control Panel and remove (if found):

WeatherBug (or AWS)
Viewpoint

Then remove these highlighted folders:

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint
C:\Program Files\AWS
