but I'm almost sure it's not bad
What made you post the log in the first place ?? pop-ups ??
Interesting McciTrayApp that it pops up in a lot of HJT log, but doesn't get a mention in removal tips - but can't find what it is actually for..Ever stop to think and forget to start again?0 -

This is the information I get on Net Meter. You decide and keep it if you wish.
Process Name : NetMeter
File Name : NetMeter.exe
Description: NetRatings software by Opistat . "OpiStat measures Internet usage anonymously and surveys participants according to their profiles and online habits". This software has been reported to get downloaded and installed automatically after a Grokster install.
Rating: Typically viruses, spyware, adware and resource hogs.
Not sure what to do now whether to remove it.0 -
could get your firewall to block all outgoing traffic from that program, if it still does what you want it to do after that then I think there are no worries
if you want to be 100% sure the viruses went then run your Antivirus in safe mode, but the log looks clean
