Welcome to TechSpot

First of all, ALWAYS run HJT in Safe Mode, as the ONLY open program.
Secondly, it looks like you always open Outlook, Word and Excel. That is an unnecessary waste of resources.
Once a program has been opened during a session, the next time it will open in a fraction of a second!

Now, go download CWshredder at http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html.

Boot into Safe Mode (press F8 a few times at start-up) and run first CWShredder and then HJT.
A few of the entries underneath might have disappeared already.

These are the criminals to be "fixed" by HJT:
(I included the R1 and O14 HP-lines. Nobody likes HP that much to have them as default home-page!)

As you are using Wireless networking, make sure you have set all the safety-precautions,
such as 128-bit WEP-encryption and not sending of SSID, etc.
