I found this:

msxml4-KB927978-enu.log

I am scared, because I have a year's gfx work on here, and I have no sound. I rebooted to install something for my cousin(Sony MP3 player music uploader). When my cousin got on, she played a song, and she heard no sound. I checked my songs, and I hear nothing. Later, I ended a process called: watch.exe because I never installed anything like it. I switched headphones, same problem. I think the Sony Software MIGHT have something to do with it. I am, as of right now, using: Spybot Search and Destroy and McAfee SecurityCenter to find the problem. I am about to do an online scan.

Oh, and I made sure that I have volume all the way up... Oh my god, I am scared...

As far as your sound issue, I have no idea what has occured there, but it does not sound like a malware issue. Try removing whatever you downloaded to see if it returns to normal. Take more care of what you download to your computer.

You are familiar with the fact there are a lot of unsafe downloads out there, see this:
