8 steps completed, here's my logs

You started with a Trojan Lop infection. Referral to either of the following in the beginning might have spared the need for reformat:

At any rate, 80 posts to get to a reformat is way too many. Loading system down with one program after another to see if one will work puts a strain on an already strained system.

Reformat went good, finished installing all needed programs, updates, and drivers. Thanks for all the help during that. I found some information today actually saying that the file uses an exploit in XP to spread itself as well. There is actually a windows update to fix the exploit. Found the link today I'll see if I can find it again it was on my brothers computer.
