Create a new folder on your desktop
Right click an empty spot on the desktop
Select NEW>>FOLDER
Name the new folder Locate
Download and save too desktop Locate.zip (http://\"http://www.atribune.org/downloads/locate.zip\")
UNZIP the contents to that newly created folder
Open the Locate folder and Double click to run Locate.bat
Could you also
download Startdreck.zip startdreck.zip (http://\"http://www.niksoft.at/php/dl.php?f=startdreck.zip\")

First click on the config button.

Your log is looking good
If everything is running better
You should disable system restore---restart your computer--enable system restore
This will clear all your restore points and ensure you don't restore any nasties
Once reenabled it will create a fresh restore point
How to Disable and Re-enable System Restore feature (http://\"http://vil.nai.com/vil/SystemHelpDocs/DisableSysRestore.htm\")
Once back in Windows and System Restore is reenabled
You should set up protection against future attacks
SpywareBlaster by JavaCool---will block bad ActiveX and malevolent cookies
Install---Check for Updates---Enable all protection
http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html (http://\"http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html\")
IE-Spyad---IE-SPYAD puts over 5000 sites in your restricted zone so you'll be protected when you visit innocent-looking sites that aren't actually innocent at all.
Here is a tutorial and download link
TUTORIAL==Link to Tutorial (http://\"http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/index.php?showtutorial=53\")
Download link (http://\"https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/ehowes/www/resource.htm#IESPYAD\")
With both, Check for updates every couple of weeks
Keep the link to IE-Spyad bookmarked so you can check for updates
SpywareBlaster, after every update just simply enable all protection
Stay safe

One note: You are running Kodak's software updater
Many consider backweb as spyware, you can disable the updater if you wish
