You are better off having an experienced person look over the log/s.

The hijack this log, and the other logs requested in the sticky on this site are used as a diagnostic report/tool, to determine if malware/virus's are still active, after the other steps have been completed.

There is a post in the sticky section that says do not use the parser.

Please read the sticky posts:

If you are not getting any results using anti-virus scanners, or anti-malware scanners,
other non malware related diagnostic tools may be required to find the root of the particular issue. Of the few options that I found when searching for tools, I can recommend "procmon" from sysinternals, using boot logging, to find out just what is going on durring the boot process.. However, considering that you have already attempted to fix some things using the parser, you may have done more harm than good, and might run into further issues due to the attempted fix.


I don't recommend proceding with any other diagnostic, without undoing the changes made with hijackthis.

(How do I restore items I have mistakenly deleted?
Open HijackThis and click the "Open the Misc Tools section" button. Click on the "Backups" button at the top of the interface.

A list of settings that you have removed with HijackThis will appear. Select the setting that you would like to restore and click the "Restore" button)

It is sometimes faster and more rewarding to back up your important data and re-format/re-install the opperating system. You would probly save alot of time by starting over from scratch, backing up your data/pictures/emails etc. Then reformatting/re-installing windows, this way you know your OS is clean and free of any malware/viruses, or mistakes/ registry issues that may have been caused by the attempted hijackthis fix.

If this is the route you are going to take, once you get your OS re-installed, get a good anti-virus application installed, updated, then scan your backed up data before restoring it onto the computer.

If you would like to look into the issue, to find out what is going on, I am going to have to pass the buck, I don't know enough about windows 7 to make valid suggestions other than the above mentioned diagnostic tool "procmon", to monitor the boot process.
