Hi all !

I have the ipression my pc is getting slower and slower everyday. I thought it was due to Norton Internet Protection, but I am not sure. A friend of mine talked to me about your website and told me you could certainly be of great help for me.
I ran HJT and here is the log I have (to be honest, I do not understand exactly what this means, but if this is the list of malware / spyware I have on my PC, I am impressed and look forward you to helping me !) :
