Arghh, strange computer problem!

Hey there, I've been transfered to this section, because this is meant to be your area of expertise.

Basically, when I boot Windows, the desktop appears for a few seconds while it loads, then totally disappears. I manage to open Firefox by clicking on the default browser button on my Keypad, otherwise I can't do anything. I've tried ctrl, alt + delete to access the task manager, and nothing happens. There also is no start menu, lol, there's nothing, I can only move in between programs with alt + tab….. =/

I hadn't installed anything new/strange at the time. The effect just seemed totally random.

I've tried removing the problem with the latest update of Spybot S&D, I've tried AVG anti-virus, and I've tried AFT; they've all been successful in removing 'harmful files', but not successful in eliminating the problem.

Anyways, I did try and get a log from HijackThis, but it just keeps closing itself when I attempt to save the logfile.
I've also tried doing the screen-shot method. Which meant going into C:\\WINDOWS\System32\mspaint.exe, but this didn't work either. Anything that could help, just refuses to load.

It seems impossible to return to a restore point, because there is no way to gain access to the Control Panel or any other System Tools found on the start menu. I've tried running CMD from the WINDOWS/System32 folder, and opening Control Panel from there. It begins to load something, then stops, and nothing opens.

This randomly happened while I was playing World of Warcraft a few weeks ago.
It was fine one second, then WHOOPH, everything disappeared.
On the bright side, it was working this morning, and I was able to save a log of the HijackThis scan, and saved it, before everything disappeared again.
I also took advantage of the computer working for a short amount of time, and attempted to System Restore. Although this was unsuccessful, as it would not let me restore to any of the previous restore points, which was quite annoying >_>

Anyways, I don't really know what to make of it anymore. I really hope you guys can help =/
Here's the HijackThis log I made today:

Any ideas what it could be? Heard of anything like it before?
wb, please.

Hello Dargoroth, We would be glad to look at your issue, but would like to make absolutely certain that it isn't malware-related. I am currently communicating with IndiGenus to make sure that your log is clean. Once I receive confirmation from him, we can continue here if needed. I'll be in touch. Regards, Ax

Ok, no problem.

It turns out that there is something that needs to be taken care of. IndiGenus is going to take over at your other thread. We will continue this thread if/when IndiGenus tells you to come back to it.

Regards,

Ax

Hi ax, just to let you know, the other thread has been resolved now. So you can now close this thread thanks.

Great to hear Dargoroth, I hope all is working well on your system now!
