    Please read this: http://www.majorgeeks.com/vb/showthread.php?t=35407 and pay particular attention to the last paragraph that states:

    "If you have gotten this far and still need to post your Hijack This log file, please close ALL running programs before you run it. This includes your web browser, email, firewall, anti-virus and programs running in your system tray (icons in the very bottom right) "

    You have lots items running that should have been shut down first. That would make your log smaller and easier to read. Plus when you get around to fixing items with HijaakThis you do not want to have a problem due to the fact that an application is running and a particular item cannot be deleted since it is running. For just a partial example you have these:
    C:\WINDOWS\ziphelp.exe
    C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\ymsgr_tray.exe
    C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
    C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
    C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
    C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
    C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 4\Dreamweaver.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\NOTEPAD.EXE

    None of those should be running when doing a HijaakThis log (notice for IE windows).

    That being said, first disable system restore
    http://www.majorgeeks.com/vb/showthread.php?t=31668
    and reboot:

    Now shut down all applications run HijaakThis again and have it fix:

    In addition winssk32.exe is a worm:
    winssk32 - winssk32.exe - Process Information

    Process File: winssk32 or winssk32.exe
    Process Name: Winssk32
    Description: new variant of Sobig, known as Sobig.E.The worm usually arrives in e-mails with body text "Please see the attached zip file for details." and attachment "your_details.zip"
    Company: N/A
    System Process: No
    Security Risk ( Virus/Trojan/Worm/Adware/Spyware ): Yes

    Download and run this from Symantec: :

    http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/FixSbigE.exe


    Now reboot in safe mode (http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2001052409420406?OpenDocument&src=sec_doc_nam)
    and delete the following if they still exist:

    C:\WINDOWS\winssk32.exe
    C:\WINDOWS\ziphelp.exe
    D:\Setup.exe
