Hey everybody. I've looked at other threads regarding this problem on these forums and have downloaded and run the HijackThis program (and unzipped it to a permanent folder i.e. C:\Program Files\HijackThis). I've seen that i'll have to post up the logfile, so here it is (i'm running on a Dell Dimension 8250 Windows XP, by the way):
