Here is my log I ran this after running adaware and privacy defender 3.0. I am sure my windows, explorer and other such programs are up to date as I use the auto update function. I started this trip trying to delete the TV Media spyware (tvm.exe) but I know think I have a lot more stuff then that. So just let me know.

Here's the log.
