Kaspersky shows you all the files it scanned, not just the viruses or trojans. The other infections were located in System Restore and backup HiJackThis files. You can get rid of them by deleting the HJT backup files and resetting your System Restore.Why all the files listed in kaspersky if only one is there?
AdAware2007 and SpyBot TeaTimer are still running, they both use a lot of resources and are not needed to run at start up. TeaTimer especially can hinder the removal of nasty items.
AdAware2007 runs as a service and must be disabled via services.
Go to Start, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Scroll through that list until you find it, double click to open and first Stop it from running, it will then turn off, then set start up to disabled.
There are other items that run automatically via services that can be either set to manual or disable. Look here for the list
You disable or stop these just like I noted above.
You really should use Add/Remove to uninstall programs, not CCleaner.
To be certain Windows Defender is removed do the following;
Go to start..click search, files and folders...type in windows defender.
Search will scan the computer and if it finds Windows Defender items just delete them.
You also should use something like Mike Lin's StartUp Control Panel to disable auto starts not msconfig. Msconfig is generally considered a trouble shooting tool and really should only be used for that. Mike Lin's programs is super easy to use and is free. I recommend you download Mike's program, install and it will appear in your Control Panel with a little computer Icon labled Start Up. Once you have done that then go back into msconfig, enable everything again...normal boot. Reboot. Then go to Mike's program, put a checkmark in everything you don't want running at start up, click ok and then reboot again.
PS2 is usually Playstation 2
XML Parser and SDK are for Internet Explorer
msnmessenger is MSN Instant Messenger, has nothing to do with Windows Defender
Other unnecessary items running at start up or in the background are Windows Fax Service, Google Updater,
AVG Anti-spyware, and Super Anti-Spy. Disable via Mike Lin's program.
You have minimal RAM on the system it is very easy to update and really not expensive. You can easily do it yourself.
What is the make and model of the computer?
