The lovely Downloader Virus

It seems that I somehow fell victim to this lovely old virus. I read somewhere that there was a new version of it that began in the last few days or so. I am so careful to take the necessary precautions to avoid these problems. However, apparently I don't. On Monday, 31 December 2007, I was prompted by Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition (yes, I consistently ensure I have updated definitions), that it detected the Downloader virus. It gave me the results as 'Clean Failed, Quarantine Failed, Access Denied'', I have tried myself to clean the computer and I think I've gotten rid of a few things that were bothersome. However, I believe I have not completely elimated the Downloader. My Outlook keeps opening on it's own. And when I run the HijackThis software, I see some things that I'm pretty sure should be taken care of. I would like advice from someone who is experienced with this, as I would prefer not to have to reformat. I am including my HijackThis log file that was just completed. Please let me know what I need to take care of from this log file. I greatly appreciate any help that can be given.

hi,

iam not seeing anything in the log that looks like malware. try cleaning out some temps, which can be done much easier with ATFcleaner:

Shelf, Thank you for checking out my log file. I was pretty sure I had taken care of the problem, but I just wanted someone with more experience in this to verify. After posting, I kept running Norton quite a few times and could not get it to pick up on any virus. I had also done one online. I haven't had any problems since then, so I guess it's taken care of. Thanks again for looking at the log file.
