I'm getting very annoyed here. I think of myself as somewhat as an advanced computer user, but i just cannot figure out what is going on. This is the problem:

When i restart my computer, and log on to an account, it loads for about 3 seconds, and just stops (when the taskbar items should be loading up). All i can do is open the task manager. I figured it was an explorer problem, so i end that, and start it again but to no avail.

Each time i wish to use my computer, i have to system restore it back to last weekend. Once i do this, i can log onto one account, but as soon as my family tries to log onto their account, that account freezes, and i have to go back to mine.

I've tried everything... virus scans by many publishers (nortan, mcafee, system trend (?)) anti-spyware scans (spybot search and destroy, microsoft anti-spyware), but my system is sqeeky clean. And yes, i have updated all my definitions countless times.

Some help here would be great

By the way, this is my HJT logfile
