Answer» Would like to make it short. My pc got infected earlier and the machine seems to run fine now after some scans and repair processes. However, I still feel that my pc is still running slower than it used to. Could you please help and have a look at the hijackthis log to see if it's really clean? Thanks in advance.

First we need to disable Tea Timer so it doesn't block any fixes. You can turn it back on when we are done.
Disable Spybot's TeaTimer
While TeaTimer is an excellent tool for the prevention of SPYWARE, it can sometimes prevent our tools from fixing certain things. Please disable TeaTimer for now until you are clean. TeaTimer can be re-activated once your logs are clean.
First:
- Right click Spybot in the System Tray (looks like a calendar with a padlock SYMBOL)
- Choose Exit Spybot S&D Resident
Second:
- Open Spybot S&D
- Click Mode, check Advanced Mode
- Go To Left Panel, Click Tools, then also in left panel, click Resident
- If your firewall raises a question, say OK
- Uncheck the box labeled Resident Tea-Timer and OK any prompts.
- Use File, Exit to terminate Spybot
- Reboot your machine for the changes to take effect.
. ----------
Open Hijackthis and select Do a system scan only.
Place a check mark next to the following entries: (if there)
O2 - BHO: (no name) - {7E853D72-626A-48EC-A868-BA8D5E23E045} - (no file) O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [SoundMan] SOUNDMAN.EXE O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [HP Software Update] "C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\HP Software Update\HPWuSchd2.exe" O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [iTunesHelper] "C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunesHelper.exe" O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [TkBellExe] "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Real\Update_OB\realsched.exe" -osboot O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [Adobe Reader Speed Launcher] "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\Reader_sl.exe" O4 - HKCU\..\Run: [MsnMsgr] "C:\Program Files\MSN Messenger\MsnMsgr.Exe" /background O4 - Global Startup: HotSync Manager.lnk = C:\Program Files\Sony Handheld\HOTSYNC.EXE O9 - Extra button: Messenger - {FB5F1910-F110-11d2-BB9E-00C04F795683} - C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe (file missing) O9 - Extra 'Tools' menuitem: Windows Messenger - {FB5F1910-F110-11d2-BB9E-00C04F795683} - C:\Program Files\Messenger\msmsgs.exe (file missing)
Important: Close all windows except for Hijackthis and then click Fix checked.
Exit Hijackthis.
----------
Download and install CleanUp!.exe
Open Cleanup! by double-clicking the icon on your desktop (or from the Start > All Programs menu). Set the program up as follows:- Click Options...
- Move the arrow to Standard CleanUp!
- Uncheck the following: (if checked)
- Delete Newsgroup cache
- Delete Newsgroup Subscriptions
- Click OK
Click the CleanUp! button to start the program. Reboot/logoff when prompted.
Note: CleanUp! deletes EVERYTHING out of your temp/temporary folders, it does not make backups. If you have any documents or programs that are saved in any Temporary Folders, please make a backup of these before running CleanUp! If you have a 64 bit Operating System do NOT run Cleanup and let me know as we will use another utility

Let me know how things are now.thanks and seems it runs better. btw, you think the teatimer is a good enough guard? Thanks.Tea Timer can be a pain as well as a resource hog. I personally refuse to use it.
This is a good time to clear your infected system RESTORE points and establish a new clean restore point:- Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore
- Select Create a restore point, and click Next.
- Next, go to Start > Run and type in cleanmgr
- Select the More options tab
- Next to System Restore click Clean up...
This will remove all restore points except the new one you just created.
