Welcome to Major Geeks!

There is nothing of concern in your log, but why are you running it. It is not a full blown malware scanner and detects very little which is why our forums sticky threads ( re: Forum Rules and Guidelines ) state not to post HJT logs. They are of very little use in detecting malware on a PC.

If you are having malware problems or want to properly test your PC to see if this is any malware, the below is the correct approach:

First off thanks!

I posted the log because I wasn't sure if there was some kind of key logger program running or not.

When the person gave me the computer to check out, the operating system was only two days old.
I couldn't find anything malicious with the computer but just trying to be as thorough as possible. Thanks again.

Do you have any ideas that could point me in that direction?

You would not find it with HijackThis if there was, but why are you looking for one. What exact problems are being experienced.

If you mean you want to know if the PC is clean then I already gave you the link in my first message.

If there was a key logger on the system, do you know of a program that can detect it?

Probably the tools in the link that Chaslang gave you will give him a good idea if one was on there

I don't want to remove it, I just want to prove it. Any help?

Why do you even think there is a keylogger at all?

You could try using some rootkit scanning tools but you need to know what to look for. Are you an expert in malware removal and in Windows?
