Hi soulkeeper, welcome to DaniWeb :D

Start with this --

For every User listed under C:\Documents and Settings, delete the entire contents of these folders (not the folders themselves):

Local Settings\Temp
Cookies
History
Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5

Delete the entire contents of your C:\Windows\Temp folder.

Delete the entire contents of your C:\Temp folder (if you have one).

Do a search for *.tmp and delete all entries found.

Go to Start, Run, and type in cleanmgr, and then click OK. Select the drive XP is on, and check the boxes for Downloaded Program Files (move any files you wish to keep out of this folder first), Temporary Internet Files, Recycle Bin, Temporary Files, Temporary Offline Files, Offline Files, (and Compress old files & Catalog files for the Content Indexer if you wish), and then click OK. Click Yes to confirm you want these files deleted. It may take awhile for this to run, please be patient.

Note: if any of these temporary files cannot be deleted while in normal mode, try Safe Mode.

Update your anitvirus program and run a full system scan.

Run a at least two of these free online anti-virus/anti-spyware scans and have them clean what they can:

http://www.kaspersky.com/scanforvirus.html
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
http://us.mcafee.com/root/mfs/default.asp?cid=9914
http://www.ravantivirus.com/scan/
http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php

Empty your Recycle Bin and Reboot.

Close any open browser windows, scan with hijackthis, and post a new log please. Let us know if there is any improvement.

Is that the complete log? It doesn't have any O15, O16, or O23 entries like your first one did.

Scan with hijackthis and have it fix the following entires:

O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [winupdates] C:\Program Files\winupdates\winupdates.exe /auto
O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [BNInv] invbn.exe
O4 - HKLM\..\RunServices: [IE Runtimes] winis.exe

Be sure to close all open windows, other then hijackthis, before hitting Fix checked.

Go to the following locations and delete the highlighted folder and file:

C:\Program Files\winupdates
C:\WINDOWS\system32\invbn.exe

Do a search for winis.exe and delete any instances found.

Note: if any of these cannot be deleted in normal mode, try Safe Mode.

Empty your Recycle Bin and reboot.

Close any open browser windows, scan with hijackthis, and post a new log please.

Okay, we'll wait for the new log.

Did you set Dawn.com as your start page yourself?

_________________________________________________________________

Though, it didn't help all my problems. I just found a whole bunch of stuff that I didn't even download and it takes up about 300mb of space and it keeps on getting bigger! I delete all 200-600 files that are exactly 352kb and every time I reboot my computer, they just come back! Also, task manager (ctrl-alt-delete) still won't show... This is really scaring me now. I really appreciate you helping me!
thanks!

Your log looks clean to me other then the possible exception of

O15 - Trusted Zone: http://ny.contentmatch.net (HKLM)

If you didn't put this in your Trusted Zone yourself, you can have hijackthis fix it.

Are you still having problems with your system?
