My anti virus programs say I'm clean-but am I really infected?

Hi, I'm new here. I've been reading a lot on your forum and followed the advice which I found to be very helpful against viruses.

For antivirus I use AVG Pro, Spybot SD and Ad-aware Professional. I also have Spyware Blaster installed on my comp and for firewall-Zone Alarm Pro. All three progs are updated and working.

I battled with a few trojans recently though (backdoor) and also a worm called I/ Bagle which AVG promptly sent to the virus vault. Since then I have run several scans and all of them say I'm clean. I still have one last doubt though when I ran HJT. I don't know what those "file missing" entries mean. Are they viruses or safe? Could you please take a look at my HJT log? Here it is:




THANKS in advance!

[B]Hello and welcome to Techspot.[/B]

Your HJT log is clean as a whistle.

If you have any further virus/spyware problems, please post in this thread.

Regards Howard

Edit: BTW, the file missing entries are perfectly safe and are nothing to worry about.
