HijackThis log

Alright, I have managed to elude spyware for well over a year and a half now, but it seems that something has gotten ahold of my system again. grr. I think it started with SpyFalcon and spread, but not positive. Done all the spyfalcon removes that I could find, and followed some manual instructions as well.

Have run Ad-Aware and Spybot in safe mode, with system restore off…but I keep getting SpyFalcon(Axe) temp files trying launch, along with some add-site attempted visits. The paaaain… the paaaaain. =)

Thanks in advance, and thanks to TomCoyote.
