Thanks!!
Don't worry about this "missing" entry.. It isn't missing. It doesn't always mean, because Hijackthis shows a "missing entry" that it is really missing.
HijackThis enumerates registry entries and for some entries it has problems to properly read them, because some switches are used in the registry entries. For example, in this case:

O23 - Service: Kaspersky Internet Security 6.0 (AVP) - Unknown owner - C:\Archivos de programa\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Internet Security 6.0\avp.exe" -r (file missing)

Because of that switch -r as how it is displayed in the registry, Hijackthis has problems to properly read it.
