    Ok look very good now.

    You don't seem to have a third-party firewall installed. You must install one firewall.
    It is possible that you're using the Windows XP firewall. That is of course better than nothing but I recommend that you install a more advanced firewall that gives more protection. Windows firewall doesn't eg protect your computer from inbound threats. This means that any malware on your computer is free to "phone home" for more instructions. Remember to use only one firewall at the same time. I'll give you a few alternatives if you want to install a third-party firewall:

    These are good (free) antiviruses:


    Also one or more of the identified infections may have stolen information. If this system is used for online banking or has credit card information on it, all passwords should be changed immediately. Banking and credit card institutions, if any, should be notified of the possible security breech. I suggest that you read this article too.

    Post a one more HijackThis log after you've installed antivirus & firewall.
