Let us take a closer look at what is running on your PC. We'll need you to use a free diagnostic tool (HiJackThis) and post a log as a new topic in the Hijack This forum. It will get a better response there from the people most qualified to analyze logs.
Click the HijackThis Guide in my signature, download it and follow the instructions in the guide. Also see this post.
Most of what it lists will be harmless or even essential, DO NOT delete or modify anything yet! Someone will be along to tell you what steps to take after you post the contents of the scan results.

It sounds kinda like you have the sasser worm
If it is, you can download a free fix from microsoft from a friends computer or something and bring it on disk. I had the same problem on my desktop and laptop.

That's a virus. Probably the one mentioned above. You can go to Symantecs website and download a free tool to remove it. Then, as stated above, you can get the patch from Microsoft but don't go back on-line to get the patch. You'll be infected again before you can download the patch. It would be best to burn the tool and patch to a cd from another pc.

I just remembered...there's a tool called Stinger that will get rid of it. Go to www.helpmerick.com and scroll down towards the bottom of the page.

I have a friend who uses stinger all the time and she loves it. I haven't had to use it yet.
