My antivirus subscription ran out without me being aware, and my pc was subsequently infected with numerous trojans which slowed it down to a snails pace producing popups every 30 seconds or so.
I used Trendmicro online scan to remove some, but it didn't get them all. I followed your instructions on the "before posting a hijackthis log" post. The Malwarebyte's seemed to have removed the trojans, but just to make sure I wanted someone to take a look at my hijackthis log to get me a clean bill of health. I downloaded AVG 8.0 free antivirus and will install it as soon as I know everything is clean.
Here's the hijackthis log followed by the Malwarebyte's log:

Hello

Please download Runscanner to your desktop and run it.
  • When the first page comes up select Beginner Mode
  • On the next page select Save a binary .Run file (Recommended) then click Start full scan at the top.
  • At this time Runscanner.exe may request access to the Internet through your firewall please allow it to do so, it will then run for two or three minutes.
  • On completion it will ask for a location to save the file and a name. It will do this for both the .run file and the log file
  • Call the .run file "runscan" and save it to your desktop. You will see the .run file on your desktop. Please zip the .run file by right clicking and selecting send to Zip file

Then upload that as an attachment in your next post (you have to zip the .run file to upload it here).
