Hi Paul Kelly,

Logs look good :)
Get rid of the PartyGaming Party Poker if still in your list of programs.

Things look good there, and unless there are other issues I believe you are good to go.

Written by one of the best, check out the recommended prevention methods HERE

The following is a list of tools and utilities that I like to suggest to people. This list is full of great tools and utilities to help you understand how you got infected and how to keep from getting infected again.
  • ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
    This program is for XP and Windows 2000 only
    This is a great program for cleaning all those temporary files that reside on your machine
  • Windows Updates - It is very important to make sure that both Internet Explorer and Windows are kept current with the latest critical security patches from Microsoft. To do this just start Internet Explorer and select Tools > Windows Update, and follow the online instructions from there.
  • Google Toolbar - Free google toolbar that allows you to use the powerful Google search engine from the bar, but also blocks pop up windows.
  • Trillian or Miranda-IM - These are Malware free Instant Messenger programs which allow you to connect to multiple IM services in one program! (AOL, Yahoo, ICQ, IRC, MSN)
To find out more information about how you got infected in the first place and some great guidelines to follow to prevent future infections you can read this article by Tony Klein

Any other questions or problems feel free to ask,
and thanks for using Geeks to Go. :)
