Possibly having trouble with Malware - Logs attached

Hi,

Thanks in advance for your time in reviewing my troubles and sorting through my attached logs.

I am an avid internet surfer and often go to sites I probably shouldn't, I usually just use AVG free edition and Ad-Aware free edition to remove the spyware/malware I know I'm catching at the sites I visit (I would list the sites but they are probably inappropriate by the nature of their titles alone if you get my drift).

Anyways, on Wednesday (03/11/2009), I went to run Ad-Aware and received this message (( System error: 1814 has occcured. Description: Could not login to service. Are you running this application as another user? Application terminates )). So the first thing I did was ran AVG 8.0, updated the program and ran a full virus sweep on my computer with the result of no viruses found and a few cookies removed. I then tried to run Ad-Aware again and still had the same error message as listed above. So I tried to un-install Ad-Aware and it freezes on un-install and gives this error message (( Error 1921. Service 'Lavasoft Ad-Aware Service' (aawservice) could not be stopped. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to stop system serrvices. )).

So next I searched on Google for (( Ad-Aware error 1814 )) and thats where I found a link to this website and a recommeneded solution of deleting the file (( settings.aaw )) from the directory (( C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware\ )). After I deleted the settings.aaw file; I was still getting the same system error 1814 as described above when attempting to run Ad-Aware, and the same error 1921 while trying to un-install Ad-Aware.

After reading the Majorgeeks post some more it directed me to the Malaware Forums, I followed ALL the steps in the Malaware Forum post thread labeled (( READ & RUN ME FIRST. Malware Removal Guide )) thread and after performing ALL the directions, I still have the exact same problems with Ad-Aware as described above.

In addition, I have now uninstalled all java applications and did not update with the newest ones as I don't have a need for these programs any more. I have uninstalled spybot search & destroy and I have uninstalled AVG free because the programs seem to be unable to remove spyware or viruses effectively. My computer now seems to stall when I boot it up after getting to the windows screen and there is a 3-4 min delay before it makes the windows noise and finishes loading. I also ran the windows registry cleaner from CClean in an attempt to improve the booting speed, but this had no noticeable effect. I am currently not surfing the web until this problem is resolved since I have no anti-virus software atm besides this site.

Please find my logs attached as directed. If there is anything else I can do to help resolve this problem or provide more information let me know. Thanks again and in advance for your time in reviewing my troubles.
