a) Is rather slow - just generally opening things up now - It couldn't seem to load add/remove programs at all.
b) Is opening up random links and webpages through IE
I don't really know what to do about this, i've run a heap of scans from different anti virus stuff such as malwarebytes and Spybot and Spyware doctor - they have often found stuff and eliminated it, but running all these programs is slowing the computer down and a lot of the time they aren't finding stuff when it clearly exists. MSE is on and seems to think there are no problems whatsoever, but there definitely are.
I downloaded hijack this and the log goes as follows:

Hopefully maybe someone on here can help me out with what do download/remove/scan and make of this log as I really have no idea and don't know much at all about computers.
,thanks
