hi there,

i'v ran adaware in safe mode and removed all the critical objects. restarted my comp, then, i tried to run an online housecall to scan my computer for viruses, but the problem is, the scan never finishes. either my browser closes during the scan, or the site just idels. has anyone come across this same thing? attched is my hijackthis log. this is just my home pc.
