After reading all the recomendations on what items to remove with HiJackThis I decided to take matters into my own hands, TWICE! ( I had the same problems 2 months ago) I used all the tips and was able to sort it out all by myself The logs are complicated, but with little understanding of what they are, you can decipher what should and should not be there.
Thanks again for giving me the courage and knowledge to tackle this computer stuff on my own. Keep up the good work.
