My OS is MS XP Pro. I have followed the advice given here:

http://www.geekstogo...?showtopic=2852

although I used 'Ad-aware 6'.

My PC seems unable to start up normally. It goes through the typical BIOS part and then freezes when it gets to loading XP Pro. After a couple of times it tries again and then typically by the third time, loads up completely, taking about 8 minutes.

I wondered whether from the 'HiJack This' log below, if you could determine whether there was any Malicious Code causing this problem?
