PSKelley,

here is my desktop log. I think it's pretty ugly. Obviously I take better care of my laptop but now it's time to take care of the good old laptop. Where do we begin?

There is something else wrong here. When I try to scan with HouseCall it gets to scanning System Files and then it freezes up. I have scanned with CA and nothing came up. When I scan with Ad-Aware it goes extremely slow and after 10 minu´tes it has scanned 1000 files. Something is definitively wrong. Can somebody help. I have Norton Anti Virus and nothing comes up. I have scanned with Spybot and all that comes up is DSO Exploit. I'm running out of ideas. Sometimes when I open IE it is looking up up some website 216.xxxxxx or 68.xxxxx instead of going directly to yahoo.com (home page). Please help.
