Stop the Process (ctrl-alt-del) and the Service (services.msc) for
O23 - Service: TASKESV (TESV) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\taskcntr.exe

Delete that taskcntr.exe

Install XP/SP2.

Then post a new log.

Boot in Safe Mode, see how here.
Switch System restore OFF, see how here.
In Windows Explorer, turn on "show all files and folders, including hidden and system". See how here.

Next, open Windows Task Manager by pressing CTRL+ALT+DELETE.
Click the Processes tab, select the process (if there) and click End Process for:
ALL the xxx.exe entries under Running Processes
ALL the xxx.exe entries in the O4 - HKLM group (that were not already under Running Processes)

Next, click Start/Control Panel/Add/Remove Programs. If there, UNinstall anything to do with:
C:\Program Files\ISTsvc\istsvc.exe
C:\Program Files\ISTbar\istbarcm.dll
C:\Program Files\Internet Optimizer\optimize.exe
C:\Program Files\BullsEye Network\bin\bargains.exe
C:\Program Files\Media Access\MediaAccK.exe
C:\Program Files\Media Gateway\MediaGateway.exe
C:\Program Files\SurfAccuracy\SAcc.exe
C:\Program Files\SideFind\sidefind.dll
C:\Program Files\Folder Guard Pro XP\FGuard32.dll

Next, click on Start/Run and type in (followed by press Enter):
regsvr32 /u C:\WINDOWS\nem220.dll
regsvr32 /u C:\Program Files\SideFind\sidefind.dll
regsvr32 /u C:\Program Files\SideFind\sfbho.dll
regsvr32 /u C:\WINDOWS\System32\msbe.dll
regsvr32 /u C:\Program Files\Folder Guard Pro XP\FGuard32.dll

Next, run a HJT scan and (if still there) place a tick-mark in the little square before:

Unless your ISP is NETBLK-JARING in Kuala Lumpur, fix these O17s:
O17 - HKLM\System\CCS\Services\Tcpip\..\{5763A405-D23E-49D5-9A17-A45506547171}: NameServer = 192.228.128.20 192.228.128.18
O17 - HKLM\System\CS1\Services\Tcpip\..\{5763A405-D23E-49D5-9A17-A45506547171}: NameServer = 192.228.128.20 192.228.128.18
O20 - Winlogon Notify: FolderGuard - C:\Program Files\Folder Guard Pro XP\FGuard32.dll
........................................................................... ........................
Now click on the Fix Checked button in HJT. Exit HJT.

When done, from between the above dotted lines, delete the highlighted bold files.
When a \directory-name\ is bold, delete everything in it, including that directory itself.
Delete all files and directories from: C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Temp
Repeat this for ALL [usernames].
Rightclick IE on the desktop, select Properties, click on Delete Cookies, and Delete Files.
Delete ALL files and directories from: C:\WINDOWS\Temp (except files dated from TODAY).
Delete ALL files from C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch.
Boot normal. When all OK, switch System Restore back on.

Stop using that crappy Internet Explorer except for Windows updates. Go to www.getfirefox.com

And now go and install XP/SP2.

And be more selective where you surf!
