  I'm afraid that this is bad.
  
  Could you do the following for me please?
  
  

  [*]Please download the latest copy of HijackThis from here and save it to your desktop.
  [*]Double click on hijackthis_sfx.exe to run it.
  [*]You will see a screen that says Unzip to folder. By default, this would be C:\Program Files\HijackThis.
  [*]Check (tick) the box that says Overwrite files without prompting.
  [*]Click Unzip. You will get a message that it's being unzipped successfully. Click OK and Close.
  [*]Navigate to C:\Program Files\HijackThis and double click on HijackThis.exe to run it.
  [*]Select Do a system scan and save a logfile. Notepad will open.
  [*]Press Ctrl + A to select the entire contents. Then press Ctrl + C to copy.
  [*]Return to this thread and press Ctrl + V to paste the log in your next reply.
  [*]DO NOT have HijackThis fix anything yet as HijackThis shows a lot of harmless entries.
