if someone could just check my HJT log for me i would be grateful

There are no issues evident in your HijackThis LOG.


You might want to uninstall the old version of EWIDO and reinstall the latest version in case that might be a possible issue source:

Download AVG Anti-Spyware to your Desktop or to your usual Download Folder. (NOTE: This a different tool from the AVG Antivirus Tool.).



Otherwise, the following scan may help:

Use the System File Checker (SFC) :
(typical runtime is 30 minutes) - please read over all instructions before proceeding.


Sometimes when you install third party software, it may overwrite important operating system files. This can cause instability - or worse. Windows XP includes a command line tool that you can use if you think this may have happened (for example, if you get a message box warning that there is a problem with a .dll or the system just seems unstable). Here's how to use it:

1. Click Start | Run.
2. In the Run box, type/copy&paste:
   SFC /scannow (notice the space plus slash).
   
3. Windows will scan all protected Windows files to verify that they are intact and in their original versions. If they're not, corrupt, missing or incorrect files are replaced. You may be prompted to insert your Windows XP installation CD if your Dllcache folder (where Windows keeps a copy of essential system files) has become corrupt or has been deleted.

To avoid the possibility of having to dig out and insert the OS CD, you can copy the i386 folder from the installation CD to your hard disk, and just point Windows there to find the files it needs. For instructions on how to do so, and more info about scannow, see:
