generic host win32 svchost.exe <-- This may be related to a bad windows update, read about it here. Read post #4

Open IE and go to Tools> Windows Updates and download any critical updates and see if that fixes it.


msblast.exe I am not following you on this, I don't see it in your log, but it is related to the Blaster Worm and Symantec has removal tool.

first of all thank you very much for your fast reply and all your help i think i find a solution to my problem by: 1) turning of automatic synchronize with internet time 2) remove my scanner (hp scanjet 3670) i dont know why but it was not working and i find a couple of programs that i havent install they all have a name close to (hp..... something) 3) and finally i realize that windows firewall was not on but it was turned off i also followed your (to do list) -very helpfull- thank you again ps : is there any way that my scanner or automatic synchronization was responsible for all that mess? thank you again.........

ps : is there any way that my scanner or automatic synchronization was responsible for all that mess?

I really don't know, sometimes software and hardware conflict, maybe a bad install, the programs getting corrupted, hard to tell.

How did I get infected in the first place ? Read these links and find out how to prevent getting infected again.

• Tutorial for System Restore <-- Do this first to prevent yourself from being reinfected.
• Tom Coyote
• TonyKlein CastleCops
• Grinler BleepingComputer
• Geeks To Go
• Dslreports

Here are some free programs to install, don't leave home without them

• Spybot Search and Destroy 1.4
  Check for Updates/ Immunize and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis.
  
• Ad-Aware SE Personal 1.06
  Check for Updates and run a Full System Scan on a regular basis.
  
• Spyware Blaster It will prevent most spyware from ever being installed.
  
• Spyware Guard It offers realtime protection from spyware installation attempts.
  
• Win Patrol This program will warn you when any changes are being made to your system and give you the option to deny the change.
  
• IE-Spyad
  IE-Spyad places over 4000 web sites and domains in the IE Restricted list which will severely impair attempts to infect your system. It basically prevents any downloads (cookies etc) from the sites listed, although you will still be able to connect to the sites.
  
• Firefox 2.0 It has more features and is a lot more secure than IE. It is a very easy and painless download and install, it will no way interfere with IE, you can use them both.
  
• Zone Alarm Here is a free Firewall from Zone Labs, I wouldn't access the internet without it.

Thanks for stopping by Tom Coyote , I'm glad I was able to help you.
