Hi. If you haven't done so already, scan with Adaware and Spybot and let them fix what they find. Reboot after each scan. You will also want to update HijackThis to version 1.98.2. I see a few things, but I will let one of the experts advise you on fixing things with HJT. Good luck!

Also, you are running HJT from your desktop, it should be put in it's own folder (like c:\hjt\hijackthis.exe). You can then put a shortcut to it in your CLEANING STUFF folder for easy access.

One more thing, before scanning with HJT, close all open browser windows.

You can get the latest version of HJT from here:
