Since you've just formatted, you may want to simply start over again, but if you can run the scan, I'll look at the logs. These items you're downloading and installing, DivX and Defiler Pack Codec, and utorrent....it is from these types of downloads, and the sites they are sometimes obtained from, that rootkits such as the one on this machine come from.
If you're not restoring backed up data, and you're formatting, using recovery partition or recovery CDs, resetting to factory condition, then it's possible that the sites you intially visit after the recovery are exploited.
First thing to install is AntiVirus protection before you go online. Do you have an AntiVirus installed, updated and active?
========================
In our pre-posting topic, we strongly urge members to uninstall P2P applications such as utorrent, as they are major vectors for infection. I'd recommend it's uninstall.
As mentioned in our preposting topic:

We are not here to pass judgment on file-sharing as a concept. However, we will warn you that engaging in this activity and having this kind of software installed on your machine will always make you more susceptible to re-infections. It may be contributing to your current situation.
This page will give you further information.
Please note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares.
Please see this topic for more information:
Perils of P2P File Sharing
I would strongly recommend that you uninstall these now. You can do so via Control Panel >> Add or Remove Programs.
