IMPORTANT
You are currently using an unpatched version of Windows XP which will have contributed to the problem(s) that you are now having.
You need to go here and download and install Service Pack 1a before we go any further.
If you have any problems, please post them here.DO NOT update to Service pack 2.
Doing so before your computer is clean may cause Windows to become unstable.

When you have updated Windows, post a new HJT log.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Also, run HJT and click on Open the Misc Tools section.
In the next window, click on Open Uninstall Manager…
In the final window, click on Save list… and save it to your Desktop.
Copy and paste the file uninstall_list.txt into your next reply.
