From what I can find about starware it is a search toolbar.
Look in Add/Remove for Starware Toolbar. Then click on the Change/Remove button.
It is NOT showing on your log. The toolbars showing on your logs are Yahoo. So this warning may be a false positive, but I would like to know...where is the Norton Security Scanner? I see no mention of it anywhere in any of your logs.

One thing I DO notice is that you have CCleaner running automatically at start up. I would advise against this. There is no reason to do this and if I were you I would turn it off, this could be one reason for your slowness problem. Set you browser to accecpt cookies for each visit to a page, lower the amount of disk space to use, don't accept 3rd party cookies. Clean out the temp/cookie files weekly, not multiple times a day or even daily. Weekly is good.

Another thing that will slow the computer is the fact you are running all of these security programs in the background, personally I also would recommend that you pick two at most. Leave the others turned off except for scanning.
