If someone could look over my logfile and tell me what to do I would really appreciate it. For some reason my default homepage for internet explorer keepz resetting to some other website instead of google. Thanks.

OK- some of the really evil malware programs hide multiple copies of pieces of themselves on your system, and will be able to "repair" themselves if every single bit of them isn't surgically removed. Let me do a little research and get back to you in a few hours.

Umm... I just noticed that your log doesn't show any anti-virus programs running. You need to get yourself over to either Trend Micro or Panda Software and run the (free) online virus scan they offer before we go any further. You also need to get and install an anti-virus package that will constantly monitor and protect your system. AVG has a free version; you can also look at products from Symantec (Norton) and McAfee.
