    Welcome

    Your running Hijackthis from a temp and/Or it still hasnt been unzipped, neither is a good idea.
    Create a new folder, for instance C:\AntiSpyware
    Download the exe from here to that new folder.
    http://www.merijn.org/files/HijackThis.exe
    This is necessary to ensure you have backups should anything go wrong
    Make and post a new log
