Running Windows 2000 SP4
I scanned and removed threats with the following programs:
Ad-aware 2007
Spybot
AVAST
After that, Internet Explorer would still not open. So, I ran hijackthis and got rid of AOL's BHO. Then IE was able to launch. Cool.
I then did a Windows Update, and it came up with an error, but I don't remember what it was. It was something like msixxx.exe (xxx refers to characters that I don't remember). I looked it up and it has something to do with the installer of programs. However, the 1 critical update that was available, which is the only update that I chose, installed successfully.
I have not seen that error since.
I then uninstalled Spybot and reinstalled it (v. 1.5.2), and for some reason it only will immunize the pc from 17250 out of 74431 threats, leaving a whopping 57181 threats unprotected (see screenshot to see what the threats are).

Thoughts?
I also ran hijackthis again, and wanted to know if there is anything else that can be fixed.
Here is the log:
