My e-mails get sent out to spurious addresses not in my distribution list. I get replies back from people I do not know, and the replies also contain viruses. I am including the log file from the hijackthis scan here. Please advice how to clean this up.

I'm curious if Stinger from McAfee's will pick up on anything
Can you download and save to deskto
The STINGER (http://\"http://download.nai.com/products/mcafee-avert/stinger.exe\")
Don't run it yet
Next:
Download and Install this small program
to help clean your temp folders,cookies,prefetch folder, etc...
Windows Cleanup (http://\"http://www.antispyware.nextdesigns.net/installs/cleanup.php?type=exe\")
Don't run it yet
Do another scan with Hijackthis and put a check next to these entries:
I'm including entries too red.clientapps>>Related to Red Sheriff spyware

After you have ticked the above entries, close All other open windows, including this one

When it's done>>Don't Log off or Restart your computer yet
Instead, run Stinger by McAfee's
Let it scan your Hard drive and fix what it finds
Let me know if it finds anything
Restart back to Normal mode
Access Internet Options via Control Panel
