You have a couple of signs fo infections in your log, but more importantly performace-wise, you have a lot unneccessary processes running at startup. Also- AOL's packages are very piggy; I'd suggest only using what you absolutely need in terms of that software.

You will need to close/quit all web browser programs and disconnect from the Internet for much of the following, so you should print out these instructions or save them into a text file with Notepad.

* C:\DOCUME~1\RACHEL~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\Temporary Directory 1 for hijackthis.zip\HijackThis.exe
The log entry above indicates that you are running the HijackThis.exe program from within the HijackThis.zip download package. You are also running HJT from within a Temp/Temporary downloads folder.
One of the normal steps in eliminating malicious programs is to entirely delete the contents of all Temp folders. Given that, if HijackThis (and other data that you care about) is living in those Temp folders, it will be erased along with everything else!

Please do the following:

* Create a folder for HJT outside of any Temp/Temporary folders. A folder such such as C:\HijackThis or C:\Spyware Tools\HijackThis will do.
* Right-click on the HijackThis.zip folder and choose the "Extract all..." option from the resulting drop-down menu. This will start Windows' Folder Extraction Wizard. Click the "Next" button to start the wizard.
* In the next window, click on the "Browse" button. In the destination selection box, navigate to the new folder you created for HJT, hilight it, and click "OK".
* Click "Next", and then click "Finished"; a window dispaying the newly-extracted hijackthis.exe file should open.
* Double-click on the hijackthis.exe file to verify that the program works. If it does, just close hijackthis for now.
____________________________________________________________

Once you've taken care of the HijackThis issue:


* Download and install the most current updates for your antivirus program.

* Download the following utilities and save them to your desktop or another convenient folder:

WinsockXPFix
ATF-Cleaner
ewido Anti-spyware (30-day trial version)

* Install and Configure ewido:

  • Close all other Applications and then run the ewido installer
  • Select language click Ok
  • Click I Agree
  • Click next
  • Click Install
  • Click Finish
  • Wait Ewido will open main screen automatically.
  • Wait again a few minutes and Ewido Should Auto update itself. If it doesn't, click update at the top of the screen.
  • It is very important to get the updates
  • When updating has finished, close Ewido.

* Close all open programs/windows, (especially web browsers). Run another HijackThis scan, put a check in the boxes to the left of the following entries, and then click the "Fix Checked" button:

Thanks so much!DMR...I am going to use your advice this evening,and hope it fixes the problem.Once again,thanks for the help and I will post results.

You're welcome :)

Follow the steps I posted and reply here with the log files when you can.
Once we get rid of the malicious infections, we can also trim down some of non-malicious, non-critical background programs that you have running; that should give you a bit of a performance boost.
