Now that my pc is running better (thanks again!) Am ready to tackle my daughter's. She HAD been doing a lot of downloading and such before the firewall, but now that the gate is closed, I want to clean the machine up. Used antivirus and adawre/spybot to clean up all that I could find. Not sure what belongs (and not) in the attached hijack log. Thanks in advance!

Nothing bad there, just a little bit of cleaning needed :).

Scan with hijackthis and tick the boxes next to all the following entries, then close all browser and explorer windows, and hit the "Fix checked" button.
