Hello Mark, The only thing I see wrong with this log is the fact you are running HJT from a .zip file in a Temporary Directory. You should have received this warning: http://russelltexas.com/malware/images/unsafefolder.gif You should fix this before you use HJT. I suggest C:\HJT\HijackThis.exe, if you need additional instructions look here: http://russelltexas.com/malware/createhjtfolder.htm

I see nothing of any malware in the log. I will say HJT can't see everything. If you have a reason to believe malware unseen is at work, I can run some programs to look for stuff HJT can not see. Just let me know. Since your log is clean, here is some great information from Tony Klein, Texruss, ChrisRLG and Grinler to help you stay clean and safe online:
