Welcome to Tom Coyote sorry for the delay. I really am not looking at anything real bad on your log. But you have so many games downloaded its a wonder your system is running at all.

DO THIS FIRST
Your HIJACKTHIS program is current, but it is very important that it resides in its own folder.
We will use Hijackthis (HJT) to make changes to your system and HJT will make backups of those changes,
If HJT is not in its own folder, those backups could be lost.

Easy to fix.

just go to My Computer > YOUR C:\ DRIVE > Program Files and create a new folder and name it Hijackthis .
Now scroll to where you have HJT currently, right click on the HJT icon and select CUT .
Now open the new folder you just created and right click within that folder and select PASTE .
Now HJT should reside in C:\Program Files\Hijackthis\Hijackthis.exe

Please do not proceed until you have moved HJT

I would suggest you open HJT Scan Only, close your browser and all open windows, check all of the 016 entries, they will just come back next time you visit the site, then click on Fix Checked.

Do not remove this one.

Remove this one.

Run this system cleaner

Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.

This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

Your system may start up slower after running ATF Cleaner, this is expected but will be back to normal after the first or second boot up

Run this free online virus scanner from Panda, it may pick up some bad entires that are not showing up on your HJT log. It's important that I see the log so copy and paste it into your next reply.
Panda ActiveScan <—-Accept default settings

Let me see the Panda log and a new HJT log please.

In reference to the smitfraud - toolbar888. This is a false positive by Spybot Search and Destroy. Not to worry.

You can remove both these entries with HJT.

This is related to Real Player which looks like you no longer have on your system.

The files Panda found are suspicious but not necessarily bad, what I would like you to do is to upload each of them to Jotti Upload for analysis, it does it very quickly and will give you a report, post the report into this thread.
Just use the browse feature and browse to each file and then upload it.

c:\windows\ss3unstl.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Carla\My Documents\sinstaller2.exe

The rest of your log looks good

OK, here are the jotti reports, But I could not figure out how to browse to Windows Registry to scan Quickbar? File: ss3unstl.exe Status: MIGHT BE INFECTED/MALWARE (Sandbox emulation took a long time and/or runtime packers were found, this is suspicious. Normally programs aren't packed and don't force the sandbox into lengthy emulation. Do realize no scanner issued any warning, the file can very well be harmless. Caution is advised, however.)

Windows Registry to scan Quickbar?

This is a registry value and cannot be uploaded, thats why I did not include it.

This is what I think I would do. Find both those files and right click on it and go to Properties and it may tell you what company wrote the file. If its a company that you know, then leave it be, if its blocked out or there is no information, then delete them, BUT leave them in your Recycle Bin for a week or so and make sure there are no problems. You can always go to the Recycle Bin and restore the one you want if needed. If it won't let you delete it, you may have to boot to safemode to do that.

We need to make sure all hidden files are showing :

Click Start.
Open My Computer.
Select the Tools menu and click Folder Options.
Select the View tab.
Under the Hidden files and folders heading select Show hidden files and folders.
Uncheck the Hide file extensions for known types option.
Uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (recommended) option.
Click Yes to confirm.
Click OK.

Once your system is clean, we suggest that you reverse this to keep critical windows files from accidently being deleted.

To Enter Safemode

Go to Start> Shut off your Computer> Restart
As the computer starts to boot-up, Tap the F8 KEY somewhat rapidly,
this will bring up a menu.
Use the Up and Down Arrow Keys to scroll up to Safemode
Then press the Enter Key on your Keyboard

Tutorial if you need it How to boot into Safemode

c:\windows\ss3unstl.exe
C:\Documents and Settings\Carla\My Documents\sinstaller2.exe

Let me know how you made out.
