As observed, the HijackThis output looked benign, so a missing “permission” error when launching an EXE on Vista is often a permissions or blocking issue rather than an active trojan. Common causes: Windows’ Attachment Manager can mark downloaded executables as blocked, the file may be quarantined by antivirus, or an NTFS owner/ACL or an open handle can prevent execution. Start with the simple checks below before assuming infection. (support.microsoft.com)

Checklist (quick, in order)

Check your antivirus quarantine/logs first (an AV can quarantine or block a file and still leave the file name behind).
Try an on-demand malware scan (separate from real-time AV) to get a second opinion — for example, run Malwarebytes’ scanner on the file/folder.
Right‑click the EXE → Properties and look for an “Unblock” option (if present, Unblock it and retry).
Use Process Explorer or Handle to see whether a process is keeping the file locked; close that process then try again. (help.malwarebytes.com)

If the problem is ownership or ACLs (you get Access Denied), reclaim the file from an elevated prompt and then grant administrators full control. Example commands (run Command Prompt “Run as administrator” and substitute the real path):

takeown /f "C:\path\to\file.exe"
icacls "C:\path\to\file.exe" /grant Administrators:F

Run those only on user files (not on system folders) and be careful with wildcards. The takeown/icacls utilities are documented by Microsoft. (learn.microsoft.com)

If local scans don’t help or you suspect a stealthy infection, boot the machine from a rescue/bootable scanner and run an offline scan (this avoids any resident AV or rootkit interference). For technicians, Kaspersky’s Rescue Disk is a commonly used option. Also consider checking the file hash on a multi‑engine scanner before uploading anything private; do not upload sensitive documents to public services. If the issue persists, back up personal data and consider a clean OS reinstall. (support.kaspersky.com)

Final notes: replacing AVG with Avast is fine, but avoid running two real‑time AV products at once. Keep the OS and scanners updated, make a backup before making ownership/ACL changes, and if unsure, collect the EXE’s SHA256 hash and quarantined‑file details for further analysis.

Log is clean. If you really are worried you could scan with a trojan hunter like AVG AS.
Truly, cabal.exe is not a worry. Submit it here if you wish:
