I'm a teenager and my computer has recieved the Aurora virus (oh no!). After many hours of searching for ways to fix it (and finding out that I also have other viruses that I was able to remove) I found your site. Can you help me get rid of Aurora? Here's my hijackthis log...

Any help would be so greatly appreciated, but please keep in mind that I'm young and may need a little assistance, so try and be patient! I know a lot about the computer and shouldn't need too much extra help, though. Where do I start with this log?
