Everything looks good
Do another scan with Hijackthis and put a check next to these entries:
O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {BA52B914-B692-46c4-B683-905236F6F655} - (no file)
15 - Trusted Zone: *.musicmatch.com
O15 - Trusted Zone: *.musicmatch.com (HKLM)>>These 2 usually get added by Music match, you didn't intentionally add them to your trusted sites, you can fix them
After you have ticked the above entries, close All other open windows, including this one
Leave Hijackthis open and click FIX CHECKED
YES and exit Hijackthis
Restart your computer
Stay safe
