what is the hijack probelm you are expiriencing?

Log looks clean.

I just wanted to post the log to see if there were any problems since I honestly don't know what to look for. If it looks clean, then thanks.

any help with what to fix would be great.

You have a couple of things here that may be causing you trouble. Whether you want to get rid of them or not depends upon how you use your machine.

C:\WINDOWS\System32\WISPTIS.EXE
A lot of people are having problems with this. Note the removal instructions later in the thread.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [UpdReg] C:\WINDOWS\UpdReg.EXE
Worthless Creative Labs registration-reminder service.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [CoolSwitch] C:\WINDOWS\System32\taskswitch.exe
Older versions of this quick task-switcher app have been known to cause system slowdowns.

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [QuickTime Task] "C:\Program Files\QuickTime\qttask.exe" -atboottime
Useless QuickTime startup service.

O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [ctfmon.exe] C:\WINDOWS\System32\ctfmon.exe
Some people don't like this one much, either.

thanks TallCool.
