I seem to have a roothack tool and a torjan horse on my comp, and I really don't know exactly how to get rid of them. I've tried updating my two virus programs and running them both, but that doesn't seem to work. I also run spyware removal and many other programs daily.

Well, here's my hijack this log:

1. You should only run one anti-virus program at a time, having two AV programs active can cause conflicts.

2. There are no obvious signs of infections in your HJT log. If Norton and/or AVG give you details on the infections you have (file names, folder locations, etc.), please post the full and exact details here.
