Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Which log? HijackThis or StartDreck?
LDTate
Both would be nice.

Lets see if this fixes that one.
Run Hijack This again and put a check by these.

When was the last time you did a Scandisk and Defrag?

dmalt32
I did ScanDisk and Defrag about a week ago. I deleted about 8 GB's worth of files in the hope that the scanning programs would take less time to run, and figured I should do them both. ScanDisk took nearly 6 hours to run. I'm usually pretty good about doing the maintenance thing.

Your log looks good now. Hows it running?
dmalt32
The System Resources Performance percentage is still pretty low (it's at 50 %). The Hotmail page still doesn't look right: I either get a "Page Not Found" warning, or get taken to a page that just looks wrong (words and sentences are jumbled together and the formatting is off). And is that quick open/close thing AOL is doing to the first page I type in just an AOL glitch? Should I re-install it?
On the other hand, two of the other sites that were giving me problems seem to be fine now. Programs like Word and Music Match opened without any trouble. And so far, no doom warnings from McAfee.

Try reinstall AOL.
You could also uncheck items in Msconfig.
Do you use realplayer?
dmalt32
I use RealPlayer every once in awhile. I've got some old baseball clips and stuff that use it. Anything else I can try? Re-installing AOL is going to take awhile…
LDTate
This one takes some reources: Uncheck in mSconfig and remove the 04 with HJT if you don't want it to load at startup.
Logitech Wingman software required to operate Logitech joysticks and gamepads. Unless you're a hard-core gamer, it's best to leave it unchecked
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Lwinst Run Profiler] C:\Program Files\Logitech\WingMan Profiler\Lwtest.exe /detect /quiet /launch "C:\Program Files\Logitech\WingMan Profiler\Lwpevntm.exe"
That's all I see.
dmalt32
Okay, it's been a couple of hours, and things seem to still be running smoothly: no VirusScan warnings or crashes or anything. Unchecking the Joystick thing didn't have much effect on the System Resource thing, but that's okay. As long as the trojan seems to be gone, I'm happy.
I do have a few questions for you, though.
First, do I need to re-install the Webroot SpySweeper program, or will all of the other programs I've got take care of whatever spyware problems may come up?
Second, would a Firewall program be the best way to prevent something like this from ever happening again? Are there any good ones that you can recommend; should I buy the one McAfee has, to go with their virus program?
And lastly, my brother's computer has the same StartPage trojan on it. I searched for the CONFOG.TXT file and couldn't find it anywhere. Would you mind taking a look at his HijackThis and StartDreck logs? Thanks.
