OK, TB, thanks for all of your help. I finished the remaining troubleshooting and installed the remaining AS and spyware monitoring software that you suggested. I also installed the Panda 2006 AV & AS software. However, as I mentioned previously, I uninstalled my McAfee & Norton firewalls, so now I'm not sure if I have any firewall installed (with ewido, AVG, or Panda). Please take a look at my latest HJT log, and let me know if I should still install a firewall. If so, which of the 4 that you mention do you think is the best?
Finally, if you see anything else on the HJT log that I need to fix, please advise how to do so. Here's the latest HJT log:
