Hello Jacqui, welcome to the forum. You need to know that everything that can cause a problem is not always malware. The first thing you want to do with an error message is Google it: http://www.google.com/
to get an answer you must enter the information exactly "word for word" as windows gives it to you. For instance, since I am not sure you gave the message exactly, I tried:
Buffer Overrun Detected: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Buffer+Overrun+Detected&btnG=Google+Search and then Buffer Overrun Error
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=+Buffer+Overrun+Error+&btnG=Google+Search and Buffer Overrun
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=+Buffer+Overrun+&btnG=Search

Have a look, you should be able to figure out what is causing the error message from that, if not, then google the error message you are receiving. Even though I do not see any malware in the HJT log, I do see this:
You are running in MSConfig (System Configuration Utility) in Selective Startup mode so I have no way of knowing if malware is present and simply turned off in MSConfig. If you post again, post a new HJT log with MSConfig in Normal Mode.

See this information: http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=12880&postcount=2
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_09\ <<< out of date, download the newest version of Java and uninstall all old version in Add Remove programs.

Thanks
