Help! Can't browse, use control panel or Explorer

Hello,
This is my first post on here, but I see that you have a few other people that you've helped in my predicament. I can not use IE, add printers, use windows explorer, or open control panel. I can use everything (except printers of course) inside of Safe Mode. I've tried downgrading to IE 5.5, reapplying SP4 on W2k, reloading and patching IE6, I've ran SFC, regsvr32 appwiz.cpl, and a few other things that I can't remember. I actively use and update spybot and adaware. I even renamed my profile and recreated it. Any help is very much appreciated. My HJT log is below. Originally I couldn't work at all as the shell would hang, but after using safe mode and disabling "show web content" on Active Desktop, I was able to atleast log in.

Hi :). You need to post a log that was scanned in normal mode.

Hi Crunchie, Thanks for taking a look at this. It turns out that it was related to a mailbox migration that hadn't completed on lotus notes 6.5 on my office system. As soon as I redocked there, it completed the migration and the problem was resolved. In the case of people that can't get back to their network for it to finish, in the services.msc concole plugin, they can disable multi-user cleanup service and their system will then work off the network.
