If you're stuck in an endless loop, I sugget that you uninstall SP2 first. If you feel it's malware related, you may submit a fresh copy of HJT log fter that.

USING THE RECOVERY CONSOLE TO UNINSTALL SP2
To recover your computer to a bootable state and remove Windows XP SP2
1.Start your computer by using the Windows XP Recovery Console. To use the Recovery Console, follow these steps:
* Insert the original release version of the Microsoft Windows XP CD in your computer's CD drive or DVD drive, and then restart your computer. REMEMBER: Your computer must be configured to start from the CD drive or DVD drive. The information is probably in your computer documentation about the BIOS.
* When the "Press any key to boot from CD" message appears, press a key to start your computer from the Windows XP CD.
* When the "Welcome to Setup" screen is displayed, press R to start the Recovery Console.
* When you are prompted, type the number that corresponds to the installation of Windows that you want to access from the Recovery Console, and then press ENTER. For example, if you have one installation of Windows on your computer, type 1, and then press ENTER.
* When you are prompted, type the Administrator password, and then press ENTER.
2. At the command prompt in Recovery Console, type the following lines. Press ENTER after each line.
* cd $NtServicePackUninstall$Spuninst
* batch spuninst.txt
* exit
3. Remove the Windows XP CD from your computer's CD drive or DVD drive, and then restart your computer.
