Hi Sinan,

What I mean is that Bittorent itselft may be a clean program (Bittorent Ultra is not, by the way, as seen here) but it's a known fact that more than half of all files (not just programs) available for download from peer-to-peer networks have been deliberately infected with some form of malware. It's up to you to continue using the Bittorent but please be aware that your chances of getting re-infected is increased by doing so.

The logs are looking much better. You probably do not get any popups anymore.

This would be a good time to run the following tools to clean up left overs and check if there is anything else hiding.

Please download Ccleaner and save it to your desktop.
Tutorial for CCleaner
During the installation be sure to UN-check the box for "Ccleaner Yahoo Toolbar" unless you want it. Do not scan with it yet.
