Hey guys, Hook Load Dll error occurs at boot up every time. Other than that, the pc seems to run fine. We are just worried about security, key logging etc.

I followed the malware removal guide and used Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, etc. I use AVG constantly, I have windows defender, SpyBot, and Spyware Doctor, and Norton. None of which found any Trojan whatsoever. Only thing found were some minor Adware and cookie stuff with low threat.

I have tried to use some registry cleaners but they always want you to buy after it is scanned. I found a used registry cleaner Eusing.

As a sidenote, this was my mother in law's computer and they werent able to download any vista updates for a whole year due to patch installation errors. I found out that it was a corrupt log file and microsoft assistance website had a quick fix. Long story short, this computer has been without up to date patches which could be the reason. I am currently updating it now.

I have been reading conflicting views about the threat level of this particular level. Should I begin backing up my hard drive and prepare for the worst? Should or will there be need to reformat? Thanks for all the help.

So here is the Hijack log file
