Your logs appear to be clean now.
You had the following file present.
csrrs.exe .
Csrrs.exe is a process which is registered as the W32.Gaobot.AO Worm. This Trojan allows attackers to access your computer, stealing passwords and personal data, and spreads via network shares with weak passwords as well the Windows Dcom-RPC Vulnerability:
I advise you to change all your passwords. Also since it spreads by networks, be aware that other computers in the network may be infected.
STEP 1.

Now that you are clean, please follow these simple steps in order to keep your computer clean and secure:
- Use an AntiVirus Software - It is very important that your computer has an anti-virus software running on your machine. This alone can save you a lot of trouble with malware in the future.
See this link for a listing of some online & their stand-alone antivirus programs:
Virus, Spyware, and Malware Protection and Removal Resources
- Update your AntiVirus Software - It is imperative that you update your Antivirus software at least once a week (Even more if you wish). If you do not update your antivirus software then it will not be able to catch any of the new variants that may come out.
- Test your Firewall - Please test your firewall and make sure it is working properly.
Test Firewall
- Visit Microsoft's Update Site Frequently - It is important that you visit Windows Updates regularly. This will ensure your computer has always the latest security updates available installed on your computer. If there are new updates to install, install them immediately, reboot your computer, and revisit the site until there are no more critical updates.
- Install Spybot - Search and Destroy - Install and download Spybot - Search and Destroy with its TeaTimer option. This will provide realtime spyware & hijacker protection on your computer alongside your virus protection.
