Spyware/Malware causing internet connection to be extremely slow or not connecting
Hi to all. All of a sudden, my PC's internet connection has either stopped working or became extremely slow since yesterday. I did not install any new software and even did a system restore to Saturday (last working fine) but is unsuccessful.
My other PC connected via home network has full internet speed with no problem at all.
Both PC's are connected to the same modem/router.
I had a look at my HiJackThis log and found a few suspicious items in there. Could the experts here assist me to review the log and assist to provide solution/fix please? I need my internet connection back urgently as it's essential to my business.
Thank you in advance!

Guys if there's nothing wrong with my HiJackThis log, please also tell me so that I don't have to keep waiting for a reply and seek alternative solution somewhere.
I'm thinking of reinstalling windows XP. Is this the best option? Thanks

"BEFORE you POST"(READ this Procedure BEFORE Requesting Assistance)
The Waiting RoomPosting additional comments or logs before a volunteer responds, can push you back instead of forward, because your thread ends up with a newer date. In addition helpers would think you are already being assisted because of the post count. For that reason we may merge such posts if there is time but please do not count on it.
Post here if still waiting for help in the Malware Forum, (AFTER) FOUR days
