Message service - registry key

[Xazax]

Recently I reformatted my HD, because of a massive virus infection that would lock up my computer. However, now i get a lot of popups from Message Service, which I assume is from my computer itself, saying that my registry key needs fixing and click here to fix it. I downloaded a registry cleaner from a safe site, and it fixes all the problems that it finds.

I also ran spybot in safe mode, nothing was changed when I took it out of safe mode.

I did the online virus scan, and it said none was found

Here is the hijack this log

Hi

To fix problem disable Messenger service by following these instructions (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/security/learnmore/stopspam.mspx).

I recommend you update system with SP2 as soon as possible and get yourself some protection software. See here (http://www.freebyte.com/antivirus/#scanners) to choose yourself Antivirus software and here (http://www.freebyte.com/antivirus/#firewalls) to get software firewall.
