Hi irolfi :wave: and welcome to TechSpot

Your HijackThis version is old, you can download the newest version HERE

I have looked through your log, anyway; and although there are a few areas that could be cleaned up, I do not see any absolute malware present.

To be certain, it is advised to follow the following proceedure, and provide a few scan attachments in doing so, including HijackThis.

thank you very very much for your help kimsland. i will follow this steps right now and i will let you know...

the panda antirootkit returned no threats detected.
and one thing kimsland...my pc is very slow when i start it for about 4-5 minutes,the processor is nearly 100%,and then the speed is better but still slower than normal.i think thats because my pc is a little old...192mb of ram,pentium 3 processor 667 mhz.so,can you advice me pls what programs should i keep of all them that i installed,the minimum requirements.thank you again.

Looks OK to me (but actually I'm not an expert on this)

You can safely remove these programs from Add/Remove Programs:

• Ad-Aware
• AVG Anti-Spyware
• HijackThis
• SpyBots S&D (if exists)
• Spyware Doctor
• SUPERAntiSpyware (if exists)
• And anything else you don't want any longer

Download Startup Control Panel and untick:

• pctptt.exe in HKLM Run tab
• PCTVOICE=pctspk.exe in HKLM Run tab
• C:\WINDOWS\System32\PAStiSvc.exe
• Mixer.exe in HKLM Run tab (confirm sound still works, after disabling this one
• CTFMON.EXE (there may be multiple of these) Actually it doesn't live here)
• And anything else you don't want to start with Windows

You might contemplate removing McAfee, as this can take up a lot of resource.

• Instead use AVG Free

After restarting

• Download and run CCleaner
• And fully run it
• And lastly Defrag your system (in: Programs-Accessories-System Tools)

Thank you very much kimsland.you were very helpful.bye.
