Hello. I have noticed some odd things going on with this computer which seem to be the same as this persons troubles: http://www.castlecops.com/posts224019-0.html. Multiple iexplore.exe processes(run by the system and not the administrator... dunno if that matters but when i actually open internet explorer it says administrator for the username) accumulate in the process list after a while, and random audio of commercials or music will sometimes play through the speakers if those processes aren't ended, so they might be connected (the user in the link above says he also experienced this.) He also says something about calc.exe running when hes not using the calculator. I noticed that when i start this computer that "calc.exe" appears shortly in the list of processes. I have run multiple scanners including: AVG free antivirus 8, Ad-Aware 2008, Spybot Search and Destroy, SUPERantispyware, A-Squared, Prevx, and ESET Online Antivirus Scanner. Prevx and ESET actually located the bhsrv which i think might be causing this problem, however you need to pay to have them delete the malware. Prevx also listed "calc.exe" as a hidden process. I am not experienced in using hijackthis or combofix(i dont have combofix installed, but the other user seems to have fixed the problem with it) and don't know too much about this kind of stuff, so I would really appreciate your help in simple steps that i will try to follow. Thank you for the help!
Here is a hijackthis log:

(I'm also going to guess that "O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [porka_] wormexe.exe" isnt good...)
Thanks for the help!
