Acer Aspire 3000 Laptop. SP3 XP Home Hello, Avast free edition is telling me I have a rootkit infestation. I've scanned with Housecall, Nod, Bit Defender and AVG online free scanner and nothing was found. Panda Scan told me there was a problem and would not allow me to scan. After Avast found the Rootkit it suggested it run a scan at boot up, which it did and nothing was discovered. Avast only says I have a rootkit problem when it does a thorough scan on XP home running as normal or in Safe Mode. Can you help please? Many thanks, Mike Here's my HJT Log Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.0.2 Scan saved at 19:49:07, on 11/12/2008 Platform: Windows XP SP3 (WinNT 5.01.2600) MSIE: Internet Explorer v7.00 (7.00.6000.16762) Boot mode: Normal Running processes: C:\WINDOWS\System32\smss.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\winlogon.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\services.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\lsass.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\ZONELABS\vsmon.exe C:\Pro
