Before you start can you please surf to:
http://www.thespykiller.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=5.0
Follow the instructions there to upload:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\wmsmgs.exe
It's a rather new malware and I'd like to get it detected.

Don't forget to get XP SP2 when we are done.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx
But wait till we clean you out or it might go wrong.

Check the following items in HijackThis.
Close all windows except HijackThis and click Fix checked:

R3 - Default URLSearchHook is missing

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [internet service] wmsmgs.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winsysupd] C:\windows\winsysupd6.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winsysban] C:\windows\winsysban6.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [gimmygames] C:\\gimmygames.exe

O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [internet service] wmsmgs.exe

O23 - Service: Microsoft Windows Update Service (Windows Update Service) - Unknown owner - C:\WINDOWS\services.exe

Reboot into safe mode (http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2001052409420406) and delete:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\wmsmgs.exe
C:\windows\winsysban6.exe
C:\WINDOWS\services.exe <= pay attention . Do NOT try to delete the real one ( C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe )

Then boot back to normal and post a new HijackThis log.

allright I did what was asked including installing servicepack 2, not sure if I was meant to wait until after I posted the new log or not, sorry if that complicates things, but here is the log:

Click Start > Run type services.msc > OK
In the list of services find:
Microsoft Windows Update Service (Windows Update Service)
Rightclick that line and choose Properties.
On the General tab Stop and set the service to disabled.
In HijackThis click Config > Misc Tools > Delete an NT service
In the dialog box paste: Windows Update Service

Be very carefull to get the right one. If in any doubt ask first.

Then repeat the same procedure for:
Command Service (cmdService)

Post back with a new HijackThis log and let us know how your computer is behaving.

Almost there.

Click Start > Run type services.msc > OK
In the list of services find:
Network Monitor
Rightclick that line and choose Properties.
On the General tab Stop and set the service to disabled.
In HijackThis click Config > Misc Tools > Delete an NT service
