Read a few of the related posts and replies. The progams to be deleted or fixed in hijackthis are not the same, so I'm being cautious. Have downloaded and run Ad-Aware, Spybot, AVG. AVG Resident shield could delete only three of the nine or so viruses it detected. (Neither could it heal or vault them.) One such virus it dubs Java/ByteVerify. Others were trojan horses. It redirects me to Microsoft Update page for suggestions on removal, but I don't find specific information there. Have updated with microsoft sp1a but not 2 yet.
Here is hijackthis log:

Apologies for the hijacker's rough language.
FYI, AVG identified another virus with the tag: GetAccess.class, living in my local user's temp files.
Any help would be appreciated. Hard to fight off hijackers and roast a turkey at the same time. --dieselten
