Hey!

You guys have helped me before, and since my comp is acting strange again, I'm back for a second round. Here's a hijack this log, and my symptoms.

I get a "Virtual Memory Too Low" dialog occasionally doing tasks that my PC used to SAIL through. I have no official antivirus software that Windows recognizes, but i have AVG AntiSpyware, Spybot SD and Ad-aware. I am Planning to install Trend PC-Cllin, unless anyone can recommend me to a stronger AntiVirus

dont see much as far as malware goes. this ask.com toolbar you have installed is questionable. have you read there privacy policy?

http://sp.ask.com/en/docs/about/privacy.shtml

that message you get about low virtual memory you can investigate from here:
http://www.askdavetaylor.com/how_can_i_fix_too_little_virtual_memory_in_windows.html

before doing anything i would run disk clean up and disk defrag.
